Journal ArticleDOI
Meiotic chromosomes: integrating structure and function.
Denise Zickler,Nancy Kleckner +1 more
TL;DR: The current article reviews recent information on diverse aspects of chromosome morphogenesis, notably relationships between sisters, development of axial structure, and variations in chromatin status in an historical context.
Journal ArticleDOI
The leptotene-zygotene transition of meiosis
Denise Zickler,Nancy Kleckner +1 more
TL;DR: The leptotene/zygotene transition of meiosis, as defined by classical cytological studies, is the period when homologous chromosomes begin to be close together or touching over portions of their lengths, and includes the bouquet stage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Centromere and telomere movements during early meiotic prophase of mouse and man are associated with the onset of chromosome pairing.
TL;DR: A unified model of the pairing process is proposed based on results of FISH and comparison of telomere and centromere distribution patterns of mouse and human meiocytes, which revealed movements of centromeres and then telomeres to the nuclear envelope and subsequent bouquet formation as conserved motifs of the Pairing process.
Journal ArticleDOI
A bouquet makes ends meet.
TL;DR: The 'chromosomal bouquet' is a polarized chromosomal arrangement that is highly conserved among eukaryotes and has many hypotheses about its role in the pairing of meiotic chromosomes, but until recently these have been difficult to test.
Journal ArticleDOI
CENH3-GFP: a visual marker for gametophytic and somatic ploidy determination in Arabidopsis thaliana
TL;DR: This study demonstrates that the introgression of the pWOX2-CENH3-GFP reporter construct in Arabidopsis thaliana provides an easy and reliable methodology for determining the chromosome number in developing male and female gametes, and during early embryo development.

Three-dimensional architecture of a polytene nucleus
David A. Agard,John W. Sedat +1 more
TL;DR: The three-dimensional chromosome topography in an intact nucleus has been determined using fluorescently stained Drosophila polytene chromosomes, optical fluorescence microscopy and newly developed, generally applicable, cellular image reconstruction techniques.

Genetic Control of Chromosome Pairing in Wheat
TL;DR: OTHER WHEAT GENES AFFECTing PAIRING .
Journal ArticleDOI
The Synaptinemal Complex
M Westergaard,D von Wettstein +1 more
TL;DR: The present review covers the three years 1968-1971 of the extensive work of Sotelo, R. Wett stein and coworkers and these articles will be�used as the main references to their work.
Journal ArticleDOI
The association of non-homologous parts of chromosomes in the mid-prophase of meiosis in Zea mays
TL;DR: In many cases, the non-homologous association at pachytene appears to be as intimate as homologueous association, andTranslocations probably result from the association of non-Homologous parts of chromosomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Kinetochore structure, duplication, and distribution in mammalian cells: analysis by human autoantibodies from scleroderma patients.
TL;DR: The specificity of the staining of CREST scleroderma patient serum was investigated by immunofluorescence and immunoelectron microscopy, and it was concluded that the presumptive kinetochores duplicate in G2 of the cell cycle.
