Gene Conversion
Polar Recombination | Polaron | Conversion, Gene | Conversions, Gene | Gene Conversions | Polar Recombinations | Polarons | Recombination, Polar | Recombinations, Polar
The asymmetrical segregation of genes during replication which leads to the production of non-reciprocal recombinant strands and the apparent conversion of one allele into another. Thus, e.g., the meiotic products of an Aa individual may be AAAa or aaaA instead of AAaa, i.e., the A allele has been converted into the a allele or vice versa. |
