This review is intended to be a global examination of the various hypotheses for the origin
and maintenance of genetic recombination and out-crossing, with a look at the surprisingly …

This is an opportune time to evaluate the contributions of Neurospora to genetics and
biology in the recent past and to anticipate what its role might be in the years ahead. The …

The distribution of deviations from Chargaff's second parity rule was examined for
overlap** sequence windows of a length (1 kb) predicted to be suitable for detecting …

The contradiction between the long-term persistence of the chromosomal hotspots that
initiate meiotic recombination and the self-destructive mechanism by which they act strongly …

Genes regulating recombination in specific chromosomal intervals of Neurospora crassa
were described in the 1960s, but the mechanism is still unknown. For each of the rec-1, rec …

We review the synaptonemal complex. SC, of the synapsed homologous chromosomes at
meiotic prophase in insects and mammals in terms of its formation, and the association of …

Human erythrocytes infected with the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum have
increased permeabilities to many solutes. The plasmodial surface anion channel (PSAC) …

Multiple polymorphisms distinguish Emerson and Lindegren strains of Neurospora crassa
within the histidine-3 gene and in its distal flank. Restriction site and sequence length …

There are two naturally occurring functional alleles of the recombination hotspot cog, which
is located 3.5 kb from the his-3 locus of Neurospora crassa. The presence of the cog+ allele …

To assist investigation of the effect of sequence heterology on recombination in Neurospora
crassa, we inserted the Herpes simplex thymidine kinase gene (TK) as an unselected …
