Example sentences for: meioses
How can you use “meioses” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
However, only about 50% of diploid meiotic products from rec12-D15 (null) mutant meioses were heterozygous for centromere linked markers (Figure 5E), indicating that some fraction of the products were derived from precocious separation of sister chromatids (PSS) and/or MII nondisjunction (Figure 5C, 5D).
Thus, those meioses did not exhibit simple MI nondisjunction, because 100% of diploids arising from MI nondisjunction would be heterozygous at the centromeres (Figure 5B).
Rec12 and its active site tyrosine are required for chiasmatic meioses
By applying mapping functions for aneuploid meiotic products [ 47 ] , we can set a lower limit of 22% and 29% MII nondisjunction for the rec12-117 and rec12-D15 meioses analyzed, respectively.
In female meioses of D. melanogaster , heterochromatic pairing of homologs can substitute for chiasmata to ensure bipolar spindle attachment of bivalents and subsequent distributive segregation [ 4 5 6 8 ] . Rec12 may serve a similar role in maintaining a paired (or pseudo-paired) state between achiasmatic chromosomes prior to the first meiotic division.
