Rad51-dependent ectopic (interchromosomal) gene conversion in haploid cells HO endonuclease-induced DSB Non-crossover Crossover
Crossovers and Noncrossovers occur with different kinetics wild type noncrossover crossover crossover noncrossover Crossovers and Noncrossovers occur with different kinetics Analogous results in yeast meiosis (Allers and Lichten 2001)
