Abstract: Abstract We present an SNP-based crossover map for Drosophila mauritiana. Using females derived by crossing 2 different strains of D. mauritiana, we analyzed crossing over on all 5 major chromosome arms. Analysis of 105 male… read more here.

Abstract: Crossovers are essential for the accurate segregation of chromosomes, but it is important that they be properly positioned. Crossovers must not occur too close to the centromere, but reduced crossover density may extend outward for… read more here.
