The pachytene stage (/ˈpækɪtiːn/ PAK-i-teen; from Greek words meaning "thick threads".: 27 ), also known as pachynema, is the third stage of prophase...

crossing over are complete, the cell transitions to the pachytene stage of prophase I. Pachytene features fully condensed and paired chromosomes along their...

The paired chromosomes are called bivalent or tetrad chromosomes. The pachytene stage (/ˈpækɪtiːn/ PAK-i-teen), also known as pachynema, from Greek words...

"crossing-overs" of genetic material are thought to occur during the previous pachytene stage. Sister chromatids also form chiasmata between each other (also...

prominent in spermatocytes. In spermatocytes, HRR events occur mainly in the pachytene stage of meiosis and the gene conversion type of HRR is predominant, whereas...

prophase. Prophase I is divided into five phases: leptotene, zygotene, pachytene, diplotene, and diakinesis. In addition to the events that occur in mitotic...

one of the final phases of genetic recombination, which occurs in the pachytene stage of prophase I of meiosis during a process called synapsis. Synapsis...

responses occur depending on the meiotic stage: From leptotene to early pachytene, exogenous DNA damage triggers widespread presence of the repair protein...

seems that we can regard these chromosomes as corresponding with paired pachytene chromosomes at meiosis in which the intercalary parts between chromomeres...

University in 1960. The difference in the sex chromosomes was noted during the pachytene stage of meiotic prophase. Trionychidae turtles possess a ZZ-ZW sex determinate...
