How can you use “crossovers” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

Alternatively, some aspect of the crossovers or chiasmata may transduce the signal.
Crossover recombination (reciprocal exchange) generates chiasmata, physical connections between homologs, which provide the primary mechanism to ensure proper segregation of homologs during MI [ 1 ] . In the absence of chiasmata (crossovers), homologous chromosomes experience nondisjunction and segregate randomly from their partners.
Since wild-type S. pombe has 44 crossovers per meiosis (between 11 and 18 per chromosome) [ 36 ] , the mutants statistically have less than 0.1 crossovers per chromosome per meiosis and are thus achiasmatic.
Similarly, formerly independent maps, based on cytogenetic banding patterns, meiotic crossovers and radiation hybrids, may be placed within the single consensus sequence.
To address this issue, we determined the number of crossovers present in regions of chromosomes I , II , and III in the rec12-D15 (deletion) and rec12-Y98F (active site) mutants.
