Chiasmata and the kinetochore component Dam1 are crucial for elimination of erroneous chromosome attachments and centromere oscillation at meiosis I [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2021
Establishment of proper chromosome attachments to the spindle requires elimination of erroneous attachments, but the mechanism of this process is not fully understood.

Location and Identification on Chromosome 3B of Bread Wheat of Genes Affecting Chiasma Number

open access: yesPlants, 2022
Understanding meiotic crossover (CO) variation in crops like bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is necessary as COs are essential to create new, original and powerful combinations of genes for traits of agronomical interest.

Assessing the Heat Tolerance of Meiosis in Spanish Landraces of Tetraploid Wheat Triticum turgidum

open access: yesPlants, 2022
Heat stress alters the number and distribution of meiotic crossovers in wild and cultivated plant species. Hence, global warming may have a negative impact on meiosis, fertility, and crop productions.

GENETIC INTERPRETATION OF CHIASMATA IN DELPHINIUM [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics, 1963
Asymmetry of the karyotype combined with x-ray induced interchange heterozygosity has been made use of in Delphinium to study the relationship between chiasmata and crossing-over. The tranalocation muitiples in two heterozygous plants were analyzed for chiasma formation in the interstitial segments, and for equational and reductional separation of the ...

Arrested crossover precursor structures form stable homologous bonds in a Tetrahymena meiotic mutant.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Meiotic DNA double-strand breaks produce reciprocally exchanged DNA strands, which mature into chiasmata that hold homologous chromosomes together as bivalents. These bivalents are subsequently separated in the first meiotic division. In a mutant lacking

Asynapsis and meiotic restitution in tomato male meiosis induced by heat stress

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Susceptibility of the reproductive system to temperature fluctuations is a recurrent problem for crop production under a changing climate. The damage is complex as multiple processes in male and female gamete formation are affected, but in general ...

Chromosome fusion polymorphisms in the grasshopper, Dichroplus fuscus (Orthoptera: Acrididae: Melanoplinae): Insights on meiotic effects

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2015
Robertsonian fusions account for many of the changes in the evolution of the orthopteran karyotype; in their origin, a centric fusion is involved between two acro-telocentric chromosomes, forming a single bi-armed chromosome.

Variability along a latitudinal gradient in the chiasma frequency and morphological characters of Dichroplus pratensis (Orthoptera: Acrididae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2005
The grasshopper Dichroplus pratensis Bruner is polymorphic and polytypic for a complex Robertsonian system. In this species, centric fusions induce changes in number and position of chiasmata, and thus potentially affect intrachromosomal genetic ...
