Smc5/6 coordinates formation and resolution of joint molecules with chromosome morphology to ensure meiotic divisions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
During meiosis, Structural Maintenance of Chromosome (SMC) complexes underpin two fundamental features of meiosis: homologous recombination and chromosome segregation.

Crystal structure of Hop2-Mnd1 and mechanistic insights into its role in meiotic recombination [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In meiotic DNA recombination, the Hop2-Mnd1 complex promotes Dmc1-mediated single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) invasion into homologous chromosomes to form a synaptic complex by a yet-unclear mechanism.

Modeling meiotic chromosomes indicates a size dependent contribution of telomere clustering and chromosome rigidity to homologue juxtaposition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Meiosis is the cell division that halves the genetic component of diploid cells to form gametes or spores. To achieve this, meiotic cells undergo a radical spatial reorganisation of chromosomes.

Kinesin-5 Eg5 is essential for spindle assembly and chromosome alignment of mouse spermatocytes

open access: yesCell Division, 2020
Background Microtubule organization is essential for bipolar spindle assembly and chromosome segregation, which contribute to genome stability. Kinesin-5 Eg5 is known to be a crucial regulator in centrosome separation and spindle assembly in mammalian ...

Abnormal meiotic recombination with complex chromosomal rearrangement in an azoospermic man [PDF]

open access: yesReproductive BioMedicine Online, 2015
Spermatocyte spreading and immunostaining were applied to detect meiotic prophase I progression, homologous chromosome pairing, synapsis and recombination in an azoospermic reciprocal translocation 46, XY, t(5;7;9;13)(5q11;7p11;7p15;9q12;13p12) carrier.

Cytological analysis of MRE11 protein during early meiotic prophase I in Arabidopsis and tomato [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Early recombination nodules (ENs) are multiprotein complexes that are thought to be involved in synapsis and recombination, but little is known about their components or how they may be involved in these events. In this study, we describe the cytological

Exposure to low-dose bisphenol A impairs meiosis in the rat seminiferous tubule culture model: a physiotoxicogenomic approach.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
BackgroundBisphenol A (BPA) is one of the most widespread chemicals in the world and is suspected of being responsible for male reproductive impairments. Nevertheless, its molecular mode of action on spermatogenesis is unclear.

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.

Microsporogenesis associated with seed yield in Urochloa sexual polyploid hybrids

open access: yesCrop Breeding and Applied Biotechnology, 2021
High seed yield is a fundamental characteristic of apomictic and sexual hybrids of the genus Urochloa P. Beauv. (syn. Brachiaria (Trin.) Griseb.).

Meiotic irregularities associated to cytomixis in Buddleja iresinoides (Griseb.) Hosseus. (Buddlejaceae) and Castilleja arvensis Schltdl. & Cham. (Orobanchaceae)

open access: yesCaryologia, 2019
The current paper analyzes the male meiotic behavior in wild populations of Buddleja iresinoides and Castilleja arvensis from Piedmont areas of the Northwest Region of Argentina. Castilleja arvensis showed tetraploid number of chromosome of 2n = 24.
