Loss of Meiotic Double Strand Breaks Triggers Recruitment of Recombination-independent Pro-crossover Factors in <i>C. elegans</i> Spermatogenesis
2025-06-13
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> A key event in meiosis is the conversion of a small subset of double strand breaks into interhomolog crossovers. In this study, we demonstrate that Caenorhabditis elegans male spermatogenesis has less robust mechanisms than hermaphrodite oogenesis for ensuring and limiting the conversion of double strand breaks into crossovers. This is not a consequence of differences in meiotic prophase timing...
