- Abstract
Keywords: chromosome sorting; chromatin organization; telomere dynamics; double-strand breaks; crossovers; homoeologous recombination; Ph1 Genome wide distribution of recombination uncovered similarity of recombination landscapes between barley pollen and double haploid plants; but the segregation distortion is high in double haploid population comparing to almost absent in pollen. COs are non-randomly distributed along chromosomes, there are regions that recombine more than average (hotspots), while other regions are completely devoid of COs. Okagaki et al. compile historically accumulated evidence to explain that in maize, unlike the situation in other model systems, many recombination hotspots are located within genes. Iv) Chromosome segregation includes three papers focusing on both chromosomal properties and environmental factors that impact on chromosome segregation.
