Meiosis has been studied at the cytological, genetic, molecular and cellular levels. Studies in model systems have revealed common underlying mechanisms while in parallel, studies in diverse organisms have revealed the incredible variation in meiotic mechanisms. This book brings together many of the diverse strands of investigation into this fascinating and challenging field of biology UR - https://mts.intechopen.com/storage/books/723/authors_book/authors_book.pdf UR - https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/65641 ER -
