Meiosis is the cell division that reshuffles genetic information between generations.
Recently, much progress has been made in understanding this process; in particular, the …

Homologous recombination (HR) is critical both for repairing DNA lesions in mitosis and for
chromosomal pairing and exchange during meiosis. However, some forms of HR can also …

Homologous recombination (HR) serves to eliminate deleterious lesions, such as double-
stranded breaks and interstrand crosslinks, from chromosomes. HR is also critical for the …

Homologous recombination (HR) is an important mechanism for the repair of damaged
chromosomes, for preventing the demise of damaged replication forks, and for several other …

Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) are vital to nuclear–cytoplasmic communication in
eukaryotes. The yeast NPC‐associated TREX‐2 complex, also known as the Thp1–Sac3 …

During meiosis, accurate separation of maternal and paternal chromosomes requires that
they first be connected to one another through homologous recombination. Meiotic …

Meiosis is a central feature of sexual reproduction. Studies in plants have made and
continue to make an important contribution to fundamental research aimed at the …

DNA damage threatens the integrity of the genome and has potentially lethal consequences
for the organism. Plant DNA is under continuous assault from endogenous and …

Continuing crop domestication/redomestication and modification is a key determinant of the
adaptation and fulfillment of the food requirements of an exploding global population under …

Meiotic recombination is critical for genetic exchange and generation of chiasmata that
ensures faithful chromosome segregation during meiosis I. Meiotic recombination is initiated …
