The cyclin-A CYCA1;2/TAM is required for the meiosis I to meiosis II transition and cooperates with OSD1 for the prophase to first meiotic division transition. [PDF]
Meiosis halves the chromosome number because its two divisions follow a single round of DNA replication. This process involves two cell transitions, the transition from prophase to the first meiotic division (meiosis I) and the unique meiosis I to ...

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

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 ...

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

Sexual-lineage-specific DNA methylation regulates meiosis in Arabidopsis
DNA methylation regulates eukaryotic gene expression and is extensively reprogrammed during animal development. However, whether developmental methylation reprogramming during the sporophytic life cycle of flowering plants regulates genes is presently ...

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

Dynamic Histone H3 Modifications Regulate Meiosis Initiation via Respiration
Meiosis is essential for genetic stability and diversity during sexual reproduction in most eukaryotes. Chromatin structure and gene expression are drastically changed during meiosis, and various histone modifications have been reported to participate in

Defining the developmental program leading to meiosis in maize
Following meiosis in maize Plants do not set aside a germ-cell lineage from early development as animals do, but instead generate germ cells on demand.
