Mechanics and dynamics of X-chromosome pairing at X inactivation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2008
At the onset of X-chromosome inactivation, the vital process whereby female mammalian cells equalize X products with respect to males, the X chromosomes are colocalized along their Xic (X-inactivation center) regions.

Wheat-barley hybridization – the last forty years [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Several useful alien gene transfers have been reported from related species into wheat (Triticum aestivum), but very few publications have dealt with the development of wheat/barley (Hordeum vulgare) introgression lines. An overview is given here of

Chromosome segregation in plant meiosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Faithful chromosome segregation in meiosis is essential for ploidy stability over sexual life cycles. In plants, defective chromosome segregation caused by gene mutations or other factors leads to the formation of unbalanced or unreduced gametes creating

CYTOGENETICS OF CHROMOSOME PAIRING IN WHEAT [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics, 1974
ABSTRACT Meiotic chromosome pairing in Triticum aestivum is controlled by genetic systems promoting and reducing pairing. The pairing of homoeologous chromosomes is prevented principally by the activity of a single locus (Ph) distally located on the long arm of chromosome 5B.

MNM and SNM maintain but do not establish achiasmate homolog conjunction during Drosophila male meiosis.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2019
The first meiotic division reduces genome ploidy. This requires pairing of homologous chromosomes into bivalents that can be bi-oriented within the spindle during prometaphase I.

Investigation of marmoset hybrids (Cebuella pygmaea x Callithrix jacchus) and related Callitrichinae (Platyrrhini) by cross-species chromosome painting and comparative genomic hybridization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We report on the cytogenetics of twin offspring from an interspecies cross in marmosets (Callitrichinae, Platyrrhini), resulting from a pairing between a female Common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus, 2n = 46) and a male Pygmy marmoset (Cebuella pygmaea, 2n

Identification of 5P Chromosomes in Wheat-Agropyron cristatum Addition Line and Analysis of Its Effect on Homologous Pairing of Wheat Chromosomes

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
As an important wheat wild relative, the P genome of Agropyron cristatum (L.) Gaertn. (2n = 4x = 28) is very valuable for wheat improvement. A complete set of wheat-A.

Surviving a Genome Collision: Genomic Signatures of Allopolyploidization in the Recent Crop Species [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Polyploidization has played a major role in crop plant evolution, leading to advantageous traits that have been selected by humans. Here, we describe restructuring patterns in the genome of Brassica napus L., a recent allopolyploid species.

Agent-based modeling of nuclear chromosome ensembles identifies determinants of homolog pairing during meiosis.

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology
During meiosis, pairing of homologous chromosomes (homologs) ensures the formation of haploid gametes from diploid precursor cells, a prerequisite for sexual reproduction.

Homolog pairing during meiosis : dyneins on the move [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Meiosis is a specialized form of cell division that generates haploid gametes from diploid cells. This is achieved by having 1 round of DNA replication followed by 2 rounds of nuclear division.
