syp-2(ok307) V/nT1 [unc-?(n754) let-?(m435)] (IV;V). |
C. elegans |
Balanced heterozygotes are Unc and segregate Unc (heterozygotes), non-Unc syp-2(ok307) homozygotes, and dead eggs (nT1 homozygotes). syp-2(ok307) homozygotes are viable and non-Unc. They produce 96% dead eggs and 44% males; cytologically they lack chiasmata in diakinesis-stage oocytes, exhibit persistent polarized nuclear organization during earlier meiotic prophase, lack synaptonemal complexes, and exhibit unstable pairing of homologous chromosomes. |
