title: [Chromosome segregation in mice heterozygous for Robertsonian translocations. I. The effect of mutation in chromosome 17 on the disjunction of homologs in females].
abstract: The effects of mutations on chromosome 17 upon the segregation of the metacentric and acrocentric homologues in the progeny of female mice heterozygous for Robertsonian translocations Rb(8.17) 1Iem and Rb(16.17) 7Bnr were studied. Genetic analysis indicated that the ratio of Rb to non-Rb (normal karyotype) progeny from mothers heterozygous for mutations tf, qk, t12 were not significantly different from 1:1 expected. Introduction of mutations T, Ki, Fu, t6 into the female genotype caused strong distortion of segregation and an increase in the proportion of progeny with normal karyotype (65-70%). From the data on embryonic mortality and cytogenetic observations, it is concluded that distortion of equal transmission arises before MII of meiosis. Consequently, preferential distribution of the metacentric chromosome into the polar body during the first meiotic division is relevant to the segregation distortion observed.
