Homologous chromosome - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Homologous chromosomes are chromosomes in a biological cell that pair (synapse) during cell division during the creation of gametes (meiosis). Each chromosome pair contains genes for the same biologi...

From the results in rye, it can be deduced that pairing preferences do not depend exclusively on the similarities between chromosomes involved. It is suggested that genotypic or cryptic structural differences between the homologous chromosomes of each pair analyzed might be responsible for the pairing preferences found.

Meiotic pairing preferences between identical and homologous but not identical chromosomes were analyzed in ten induced tetraploid/diploid chimaeral rye plants (Secale cereale) heterozygous for telomeric heerochromatin C-bands in both arms of chromosome 1R. These plants were the progeny of two crosses between only...

During meiosis, the homologous maternal and paternal domains pair. Normally, these domains and homologous chromosomes are identical. This is different here.

• Before cell division each of the two homologous chromosomes replicates resulting in two identical copies called sister chromatids that remain linked at the centromere.
