Contrasted patterns of crossover and non-crossover at Arabidopsis thaliana meiotic recombination hotspots.

The vast majority of meiotic recombination events (crossovers (COs) and non-crossovers (NCOs)) cluster in narrow hotspots surrounded by large regions devoid of recombinational activity. Here, using a new molecular approach in plants, called "pollen-typing", we detected and characterized hu...
