Researchers from Johns Hopkins University and the University of Copenhagen analyzed over 139,000 embryos and identified variants in key meiosis genes, such as SMC1B, that influence chromosomal ...

Meiosis is a specialised form of cell division that produces haploid gametes from diploid progenitor cells, ensuring the maintenance of chromosome number across generations. Central to this process is ...

Meiotic recombination assures genetic variation during breeding. During meiotic prophase I, chromosomes are organized in a loop-base array by a proteinaceous structure called meiotic chromosome axis ...

During meiosis, reshuffling of genetic information between homologous chromosomes through meiotic recombination creates variable gametes and hence genetic variation in offsprings. Meiotic ...

A double-strand break (DSB) is a type of DNA damage where both strands of the DNA helix are cut or broken at the same location, causing a complete discontinuity in the DNA molecule. Unrepaired or ...
