Methods for analysis of crossover interference in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Interest in crossover interference in yeast has been spurred by the discovery and characterization of mutants that alter it as well as by the development and testing of models to explain it. This chapter describes methods for detecting and for measuring interference, with emphasis on those that exploit the ability to examine all four products of individual acts of meiosis.
