Neo-centromere formation on a 2.6 Mb mini-chromosome in DT40 cells.

abstract：:Mechanisms of chromosome condensation and segregation during the first meiotic division are not well understood. Resolution of recombination events to form chiasmata is important, for it is chiasmata that hold homologous chromosomes together for their oppositional orientation on the meiotic metaphase spindle, thus ens...
