Abstract: | An analysis of the relationships in Drosophila melanogaster between one set of homologues (third chromosome) undergoing crossing over and a second, independent set (X chromosome) undergoing nondisjunction shows that the nondisjunctional set almost invariably segregates from one of the members of the crossover set and not the other. The results seem contradictory to the expectations based on the "distributive pairing hypothesis" according to which nondisjunctional (i.e., noncrossover) elements form a "distributive pool" whose members behave independently of those which have been involved in exchange. |
