Genetic control of synapsis and recombination in Lolium amphidiploids.
Chromosoma - 1 Nov 1995
Jenkins G, Jimenez G
Abstract excerpt
Homologous bivalent formation in amphidiploids of Lolium is promoted during meiosis by diploidising genes carried by A-chromosomes, and by supernumerary B-chromosomes. The site and mode of action of these diploidising factors were investigated by comparing the relative frequencies of pairing configurations at meiotic prophase and metaphase I in several different hybrid genotypes. The results indicate that...
