In this article we will discuss about the translocation in humans. Interchanges are the most common structural chromosome changes reported in human. Partial sterility in interchange heterozygotes is infrequent due to the production of balanced gametes and as a result, interchanges in human are identifiable only through the analysis of karyotype, usually coupled with chromosome banding patterns. Various kinds of [...]
In this article we will discuss about:- 1. Origin and Occurrence of Triploids 2. Chromosome Pairing and Chiasma Formation in Auto-Triploids 3. Fertility of Auto-Triploids 4. Pneotypic Effects of Auto-Triploidy. Origin and Occurrence of Triploids: (i) Triploids originate from hybridization between auto-tetraploids (4x) and diploids (2x). The autotetraploid produces diploid (2a) gametes which when fertilized by a normal monoploid (x) [...]
The following points highlight the top eight aspects of reciprocal translocation in genetics. The aspects are: 1. Chromosome Pairing 2. Orientation of the Quadruple at Ml 3. Sterility in Interchange Heterozygotes 4. Crossing Over in the Interchange Heterozygotes 5. Detection of Interchanges 6. Isolation of Homozygous Interchange Lines and a few others. Aspects of Reciprocal Translocations Chromosome Pairing Orientation of [...]
