On the origin of crossover interference : a chromosome oscillatory movement (COM) model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background: It is now nearly a century since it was first discovered that crossovers between homologous parental chromosomes, originating at the Prophase stage of Meiosis I, are not randomly placed.

Localization, analysis and evolution of transposed human immunoglobulin VK genes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
The localization of Vκ gene regions to chromosome 2, on which the κ locus is located, and to other chromosomes is described. The Vκ genes that have been transposed to other chromosomes are called orphons.

Comparative BAC-based mapping in the white-throated sparrow, a novel behavioral genomics model, using interspecies overgo hybridization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
BACKGROUND The genomics era has produced an arsenal of resources from sequenced organisms allowing researchers to target species that do not have comparable mapping and sequence information.

The value of avian genomics to the conservation of wildlife [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background: Genomic studies in non-domestic avian models, such as the California condor and white-throated sparrow, can lead to more comprehensive conservation plans and provide clues for understanding mechanisms affecting genetic variation, adaptation ...

Acrocentric bivalents positioned preferentially nearby to the XY pair in metaphase i human spermatocytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Objective: To analyze whether the preferential proximity between acrocentric bivalents and the XY pair described at pachytene was maintained in metaphase I human spermatocytes. Design: Proximity frequencies of autosomic bivalents to the sex bivalent were

Nonrandom distribution of metaphase AgNOR staining patterns on human acrocentric chromosomes.

open access: yes, 2000
The metaphase nucleolar organizer regions (NORs) contain ribosomal genes associated with proteins such as upstream binding factor (UBF) and RNA polymerase I (RPI). These genes are clustered in 10 loci of the human acrocentric chromosomes (13, 14, 15, 21,

Patterns of selective constraints in noncoding DNA of rice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Background Several studies have investigated the relationships between selective constraints in introns and their length, GC content and location within genes. To date, however, no such investigation has been done in plants.

Identification of Type 1 Diabetes-Associated DNA Methylation Variable Positions That Precede Disease Diagnosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Monozygotic (MZ) twin pair discordance for childhood-onset Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) is similar to 50%, implicating roles for genetic and non-genetic factors in the aetiology of this complex autoimmune disease.
