Preferential meiotic chromosome pairing among homologous chromosomes with cryptic sequence variation in tetraploid maize.

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2020
Meiotic chromosome pairing between homoeologous chromosomes was reported in many nascent allopolyploids. Homoeologous pairing is gradually eliminated and replaced by exclusive homologous pairing in well-established allopolyploids, an evolutionary process

Dynamics of rye chromosome 1R regions with high or low crossover frequency in homology search and synapsis development. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
In many organisms, homologous pairing and synapsis depend on the meiotic recombination machinery that repairs double-strand DNA breaks (DSBs) produced at the onset of meiosis.

Chromosome painting reveals asynaptic full alignment of homologs and HIM-8-dependent remodeling of X chromosome territories during Caenorhabditis elegans meiosis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS 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.

Natural Chromosome-Chromid Fusion across rRNA Operons in a Burkholderiaceae Bacterium

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2022
Chromids (secondary chromosomes) in bacterial genomes that are present in addition to the main chromosome appear to be evolutionarily conserved in some specific bacterial groups.

Site-Specific Sequence Exchange Between Homologous and Non-homologous Chromosomes [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Transgene integration typically takes place in an easy-to-transform laboratory variety before the transformation event is introgressed through backcrosses to elite cultivars. As new traits are added to existing transgenic lines, site-specific integration can stack new transgenes into a previously created transgenic locus.

FBXO47 is essential for preventing the synaptonemal complex from premature disassembly in mouse male meiosis

open access: yesiScience, 2022
Summary: Meiotic prophase I is a prolonged G2 phase that ensures the completion of numerous meiosis-specific chromosome events. During meiotic prophase I, homologous chromosomes undergo synapsis to facilitate meiotic recombination yielding crossovers. It

Competition for Chiasma Formation Between Identical and Homologous (But Not Identical) Chromosomes in Synthetic Autotetraploids of Arabidopsis thaliana

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Polyploid organisms provide additional opportunities to study meiosis in a more complex context since more than two potential homologous chromosomes are available.

Meiotic Chromosome Dynamics in Zebrafish

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Recent studies in zebrafish have revealed key features of meiotic chromosome dynamics, including clustering of telomeres in the bouquet configuration, biogenesis of chromosome axis structures, and the assembly and disassembly of the synaptonemal complex ...

Observations on chromosome-specific sequencing for the construction of cross-species chromosome homology maps and its resolution of human:alpaca homology

open access: yesMolecular Cytogenetics, 2022
Abstract Background The history of comparative chromosome mapping is briefly reviewed, with discussion about the problem that occurs in chromosome painting when size heteromorphisms between homologues cause contamination in chromosomes sorted by flow cytometry that are used in the preparation of chromosome-specific DNA ...
