Abstract: Crossover interference is a phenomenon that affects the number and positioning of crossovers in meiosis and thus affects genetic diversity and chromosome segregation. Yet, the underlying mechanism is not fully understood, partly because quantification is… read more here.

Abstract: Meiotic crossover interference is a one-dimensional spatial patterning process that produces evenly-spaced crossovers. Quantitative analysis of diagnostic molecules along budding yeast chromosomes reveals that this process sets up two interdigitated patterns, of shorter and longer… read more here.

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2023613118
Abstract: Significance Meiotic recombination promotes genetic diversity by shuffling parental chromosomes. As observed by the very first geneticists, crossovers inhibit the formation of another crossover nearby, an elusive phenomenon called crossover interference. Another intriguing observation is… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/bib/bbw033
Abstract: Linkage analysis has played an important role in understanding genome structure and evolution. However, two-point linkage analysis widely used for genetic map construction can rarely chart a detailed picture of genome organization because it fails… read more here.
