Tackling Plant Meiosis: From Model Research to Crop Improvement

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Genetic engineering and traditional plant breeding, which harnesses the natural genetic variation that arises during meiosis, will have key roles to improve crop varieties and thus deliver Food Security in the future. Meiosis, a specialized cell division

CDK-dependent nuclear localization of B-Cyclin Clb1 promotes FEAR activation during meiosis I in budding yeast [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDK) are master regulators of the cell cycle in eukaryotes. CDK activity is regulated by the presence, post-translational modification and spatial localization of its regulatory subunit cyclin.

Cyclin A2 Is Required for Sister Chromatid Segregation, But Not Separase Control, in Mouse Oocyte Meiosis

open access: yesCell Reports, 2012
In meiosis, two specialized cell divisions allow the separation of paired chromosomes first, then of sister chromatids. Separase removes the cohesin complex holding sister chromatids together in a stepwise manner from chromosome arms in meiosis I, then ...

MeiosisOnline: A Manually Curated Database for Tracking and Predicting Genes Associated With Meiosis

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Meiosis, an essential step in gametogenesis, is the key event in sexually reproducing organisms. Thousands of genes have been reported to be involved in meiosis. Therefore, a specialist database is much needed for scientists to know about the function of

Meiosis in Bougainvillea [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1947
A query concerning the possibilities of crossing various horticultural varieties of Bougainvillea led me to examine meiosis in several of the more important ones available in Jamaica. Six varieties, Snow White, Formosa, Dark Purple, Ruby, Orange King and Royal Purple, were used.

Spo13 prevents premature cohesin cleavage during meiosis [version 2; peer review: 2 approved, 1 approved with reservations]

open access: yesWellcome Open Research, 2019
Background: Meiosis produces gametes through two successive nuclear divisions, meiosis I and meiosis II. In contrast to mitosis and meiosis II, where sister chromatids are segregated, during meiosis I, homologous chromosomes are segregated. This requires

To Make a Long Spindle Short: Nuclear Envelope Breakdown during Meiosis

open access: yesCell Reports, 2018
In fission yeast, the nuclear envelope (NE) remains intact during mitosis and meiosis I but is compromised during meiosis II. In this issue of Cell Reports, Flor-Parra et al.

Separase Is Required for Homolog and Sister Disjunction during Drosophila melanogaster Male Meiosis, but Not for Biorientation of Sister Centromeres.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2016
Spatially controlled release of sister chromatid cohesion during progression through the meiotic divisions is of paramount importance for error-free chromosome segregation during meiosis.

TDM1 Regulation Determines the Number of Meiotic Divisions. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2016
Cell cycle control must be modified at meiosis to allow two divisions to follow a single round of DNA replication, resulting in ploidy reduction. The mechanisms that ensure meiosis termination at the end of the second and not at the end of first division
