pericentric inversion - Open QuestionInversions are said to 'suppress crossing over.' Is this terminology technically correct? If not, restate the description accurately.
- Open QuestionContrast the genetic composition of gametes derived from tetrads of inversion heterozygotes where crossing over occurs within a paracentric versus a pericentric inversion.
