Intergenic meiotic recombination is reduced in the rec10-144 and rec10-155 mutants. Intergenic meiotic recombination was measured in rec10⁺, rec10-155, and rec10-144 meioses. Different intervals were measured on each chromosome (see Figure 1 for positions), some of which exhibit little or no reduction in the previously studied rec10-109 allele (De Veaux and Smith 1994). Recombination levels were reduced at each interval in both mutants, indicating a role for Rec10 throughout the genome. Bars represent 95% confidence intervals. Pairwise comparison of rec10⁺ vs. rec10-144 or rec10-155 using Student's t-test gave a P-value of <0.01 in all cases; n ≥ 4 in all cases.
