Requiem for distributive segregation: achiasmate segregation in Drosophila females.

R S Hawley1, W E Theurkauf.   

Abstract

The segregation of achiasmate chromosome pairs at meiosis I is not brought about by a single 'distributive system' as previously thought, but rather by two separate mechanisms. One system uses the pairing of proximal heterochromatic sequences to mediate the segregation of achiasmate homologs-an observation that, at long last, defines a function for heterochromatin. The other system facilitates the segregation of heterologous chromosomes, by an as yet undiscovered mechanism.
