Excerpt from A Study of Synapsis and Reduction
From the standpoint of heredity the critical stages in an or ganism are at fertilization and reduction. That in fertilization there is an approximate doubling of the number Of chromosomes, half Of which were contributed by each gamete, there is no longer any doubt. That this number must be reduced at some time previous to the next union Of gametes is equally evident. The method by which reduction is accomplished is not so evident, although the researches Of the past few years give promise Of an ultimate solu tion Of the problem.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the phenomenon of synapsis, a critical stage in the development of plant cells, whose role in genetic diversity has only recently been fully appreciated. The author provides an overview of existing research into synapsis, incorporating both historical and contemporary perspectives. Synapsis, occurring during the meiotic division of mother cells, is a process integral to genetic variation. Recent scientific discoveries indicate that the pairing of chromosomes in synapsis may determine the distinct characteristics of offspring. The insights provided by this examination into the intricate mechanisms of genetics offer exciting new avenues for scientific exploration.
