Karyotype variability in yeast caused by nonallelic recombination in haploid meiosis.
Genetics - 1 May 1997
Loidl J, Nairz K
Abstract excerpt
Chromosomes of altered size were found in the meiotic products of a haploid Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain by pulsed field gel electrophoretic separation of whole chromosomes. About 7% of haploid meioses produced chromosomes that differed by > or = 10 kb from their wild-type counterparts. Chromosomes most often became enlarged or shortened due to recombination events between sister chromatids at nonallelic...
