TABLE 3.

PMS and gene conversion frequencies in msh2Δ tetrads

Relevant genotype Conversion

 msh2Δ/msh2Δ 3 1 0.9 15 2 3 5.2 445 6.1 ± 1.13 85
a

AS, aberrant segregations. 

b

SD = [p(100 − p)/n]1/2, where p is the percentage of aberrant segregations and n is the total number of tetrads analyzed. 

c

Calculated as PMS events (5+:3 + 3+:5 + 2 × ab4+:4)/total number of aberrant segregations. 

d

Aberrant 4+:4 tetrads were counted as two PMS events. 

e

Data from Schär et al. (60). 

f

Data from Gutz et al. (29).
