Meiotic recombination drives eukaryotic sexual reproduction and the generation of genome diversity. Tetrad analysis, which examines the four chromatids resulting from a single meiosis, is an ideal ...

Scott Keeney, Bernard de Massy, Maria Jasin and colleagues report a method to perform tetrad analysis (analysis of all four chromatids from a single meiosis) in mouse and analyzed two ...

Meiosis: It is a special type of cell division that occurs in Sexually Reproducing organisms and thus gametes (sex cells) are produced. ... - Each tetrad is comprised of four chromotids.

How Cells Divide: Mitosis vs. Meiosis by Rick Groleau As viewed from a human perspective, nature has done some ingenious engineering to overcome some of the obstacles it has faced.

Welcome to Mitosis vs. Meiosis. This half of the screen illustrates mitosis—the division of a cell's nucleus. Along with cytokinesis (the division of the rest of a cell), mitosis results in a ...

Researchers at the IPK Leibniz Institute have discovered a previously unknown protein that is central to plant reproduction. The protein SCEP3 enables plants to mix and precisely distribute their ...
