Nondisjunction: localization of the controlling site in the maize B chromosome

E J Ward. Genetics. 1973 Mar.

Abstract

Nondisjunction of the B chromosome in maize has been considered to be controlled by heterochromatin in its long arm. Experiments reported here indicate that the control site actually lies in a short, relatively euchromatic segment distal to the major heterochromatin of the long arm.
