How to pre-pair chromosomes for meiosis [PDF]

open access: yesCell Cycle, 2016
Meiosis is a special type of cell division specific to germ cells, whereby diploid germ cells produce haploid gametes for sexual reproduction.

Introgression of the Aegilops speltoides Su1-Ph1 Suppressor into Wheat

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Meiotic pairing between homoeologous chromosomes in polyploid wheat is inhibited by the Ph1 locus on the long arm of chromosome 5 in the B genome.

Sequence analysis of wheat subtelomeres reveals a high polymorphism among homoeologous chromosomes

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, 2020
Bread wheat, Triticum aestivum L., is one of the most important crops in the world. Understanding its genome organization (allohexaploid; AABBDD; 2n = 6x = 42) is essential for geneticists and plant breeders. Particularly, the knowledge of how homologous

Synaptonemal complex components persist at centromeres and are required for homologous centromere pairing in mouse spermatocytes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2012
Recent studies in simple model organisms have shown that centromere pairing is important for ensuring high-fidelity meiotic chromosome segregation. However, this process and the mechanisms regulating it in higher eukaryotes are unknown.

HO Endonuclease-Initiated Recombination in Yeast Meiosis Fails To Promote Homologous Centromere Pairing and Is Not Constrained To Utilize the Dmc1 Recombinase

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2018
Crossover recombination during meiosis is accompanied by a dramatic chromosome reorganization. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the onset of meiotic recombination by the Spo11 transesterase leads to stable pairwise associations between previously ...

New cytogenetic data on Nabidae (Heteroptera: Cimicomorpha), with a discussion of karyotype variation and meiotic patterns, and their taxonomic significance

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2004
As a part of ongoing cytogenetic studies on the bug family Nabidae (Heteroptera), the karyotypes and meiotic patterns of male Nabis (Aspilaspis) viridulus Spinola, 1837, N.

Epigenetic-structural changes in X chromosomes promote Xic pairing during early differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells

open access: yesBiophysics and Physicobiology, 2022
X chromosome inactivation center (Xic) pairing occurs during the differentiation of embryonic stem (ES) cells from female mouse embryos, and is related to X chromosome inactivation, the circadian clock, intra-nucleus architecture, and metabolism. However,

The transcriptional basis of chromosome pairing

open access: yesJournal of Cell Science, 1997
ABSTRACT Pairing between homologous chromosomes is essential for successful meiosis; generally only paired homologs recombine and segregate correctly into haploid germ cells. Homologs also pair in some somatic cells (e.g. in diploid and polytene cells of Drosophila). How homologs find their partners is a mystery.

Uncharted territories: Solving the mysteries of male meiosis in flies.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics
The segregation of homologous chromosomes during meiosis typically requires tight end-to-end chromosome pairing. However, in Drosophila spermatogenesis, male flies segregate their chromosomes without classic synaptonemal complex formation and without ...

Genetic behavior of Triticum aestivum–Dasypyrum villosum translocation chromosomes T6V#4S·6DL and T6V#2S·6AL carrying powdery mildew resistance

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture, 2017
: T6V#2S·6AL and T6V#4S·6DL translocation chromosomes developed from the cross of wheat and different Dasypyrum villosum accessions have good powdery mildew (PM) resistance, but their pairing and pyramiding behavior remains unclear. Results in this study
