چکیده

According to the model of FOSS, LANDE, STAHL and STEINBERG, chiasma interference is a reflection of the requirement for crossovers to be separated by an organism-specific number of potential conversion events without associated crossovers. This model predicts that tetrads with close double crossovers should be enriched for conversion events that themselves are not associated with crossing over. We tested this prediction in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and found it to be unfulfilled.

The Effects of Counting the Stride Numbers on the Parkinsonian Gait: Suggesting a Possible Reason for Dual Task Interference

Introduction: Parkinson Disease (PD) is a degenerative and progressive disorder of the central nervous system. It results from degeneration of Substantia Nigra pars compacta (SNc) of the Basal Ganglia (BG). Gait disturbances in PD patients generally get worse over time. The underlying mechanism of gait disturbances in PD has not been elucidated yet. Methods: In this study, we tried to analyze ...

The relationship between count-location and stationary renewal models for the chiasma process.

It is often convenient to define models for the process of chiasma formation at meiosis as stationary renewal models. However, count-location models are also useful, particularly to capture the biological requirement of at least one chiasma per chromosome. The Sturt model and truncated Poisson model are both count-location models with this feature. We show that the truncated Poisson model can a...

Statistical analysis of ordered tetrads.

Ordered tetrad data yield information on chromatid interference, chiasma interference, and centromere locations. In this article, we show that the assumption of no chromatid interference imposes certain constraints on multilocus ordered tetrad probabilities. Assuming no chromatid interference, these constraints can be used to order markers under general chiasma processes. We also derive multilo...

A polymerization model of chiasma interference and corresponding computer simulation.

A model of chiasma interference is proposed and simulated on a computer. The model uses random events and a polymerization reaction to regulate meiotic recombination between and along chromosomes. A computer simulation of the model generates distributions of crossovers per chromosome arm, position of events along the chromosome arm, distance between crossovers in two-event tetrads, and coincide...
