Studies on the mechanism of homolog pairing in Drosophila male meiosis

Drosophila male is an example of achiasmatic meiosis which lacks crossingover and chiasmata during meiosis. Previous studies showed that homologous pairing of both euchromatin and centromeres is lost during middle prophase I, however, homologs are still connected as they form bivalents. The X-Y pa...
