Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

The brains of Top2suo2/Top2suo2 homozygote third instar larvae (treated with colchicine and hypotonic solution) do not show significant increase in the frequency of chromosomal aberrations compared to wild-type.

suo2 prometaphase and metaphase I figures are normal, but anaphases and telophases are characterised by the presence of chromatin bridges. As a result of these bridges, in 29% of suo2 ana-telophase I cells, all the chromosomes segregate to one pole only, giving rise to chromosome-free secondary spermatocytes. suo2 secondary spermatocytes devoid of chromosomes form a bipolar spindle that undergoes the same dynamic transformations seen in chromosome-containing spindles.
