The
term proposed by Winkler (1930) for a process of interaction between alleles
at meiosis . The term was re-introduced by Lindegren (1953) to account for
aberrant ratios in the products of meiosis, apparently arising from such
interaction. Whitehouse and Hastings (1965) have suggested that if gene
conversion is due to the correction of mispairing of bases in DNA, it may
give rise to reciprocal as well ac nonreciprocal recombination. |
