Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Genomic architecture facilitates chromosome recognition, pairing, and recombination. Telomeres and subtelomeres play an important role at the beginning of meiosis in specific chromosome recognition and pairing, which are critical processes that allow ...

The KL system in wheat permits homoeologous crossing over between closely related chromosomes
Crop Journal, 2023 The Chinese wheat landrace Kaixianluohanmai (KL) expresses the ph-like phenotype. A major QTL, QPh.sicau-3A (syn. phKL), responsible for this effect has been mapped to chromosome arm 3AL.

Differing requirements for RAD51 and DMC1 in meiotic pairing of centromeres and chromosome arms in Arabidopsis thaliana. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2012 During meiosis homologous chromosomes pair, recombine, and synapse, thus ensuring accurate chromosome segregation and the halving of ploidy necessary for gametogenesis.

CHROMOSOME PAIRING IN MAIZE [PDF]
Genetics, 1972 ABSTRACT This report summarizes our observations at pachytene on opposite-arms intercrosses between stocks of interchanges that involve chromosomes 1 and 5 in maize.—Pairing does not begin at the centromeres in these intercrosses.—We propose a model which assumes different probability values along each chromosome arm for the initial or ...

MATHEMATICS OF CHROMOSOME PAIRING [PDF]
Genetics, 1980 ABSTRACT Analysis of frequencies of chromosome configurations in wheat-related species hybrids is extended to include cases involving homoeologous groups of size six. Further, the expected frequencies of the various configurations emanating from homologous and homoeologous pairing events have been determined for groups consisting of two ...

Meiotic chromosome pairing is promoted by telomere-led chromosome movements independent of bouquet formation. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2012 Chromosome pairing in meiotic prophase is a prerequisite for the high fidelity of chromosome segregation that haploidizes the genome prior to gamete formation. In the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, as in most multicellular eukaryotes, homologous

Multiple opposing constraints govern chromosome interactions during meiosis. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2013 Homolog pairing and crossing over during meiosis I prophase is required for accurate chromosome segregation to form euploid gametes. The repair of Spo11-induced double-strand breaks (DSB) using a homologous chromosome template is a major driver of ...

Chromosome painting reveals asynaptic full alignment of homologs and HIM-8-dependent remodeling of X chromosome territories during Caenorhabditis elegans meiosis. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2011 During early meiotic prophase, a nucleus-wide reorganization leads to sorting of chromosomes into homologous pairs and to establishing associations between homologous chromosomes along their entire lengths.

Somatic pairing of chromosome 19 in renal oncocytoma is associated with deregulated EGLN2-mediated [corrected] oxygen-sensing response. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2008 Chromosomal abnormalities, such as structural and numerical abnormalities, are a common occurrence in cancer. The close association of homologous chromosomes during interphase, a phenomenon termed somatic chromosome pairing, has been observed in ...
