Molecular Shattering Slides
A comprehensive graduate-level slide deck focusing on the molecular initiation of meiotic recombination, the role of Spo11, PRDM9-mediated hotspot selection, and the decision between crossover and non-crossover repair pathways.
Recombination Pathway Analysis Worksheet
A graduate-level worksheet for analyzing meiotic recombination pathways. It covers PRDM9-mediated hotspot selection, the decision between crossover and non-crossover repair, and the 'obligate crossover' rule with quantitative analysis.
Spo11 Facilitation Guide
A comprehensive teacher facilitation guide for the 'Recombination Initiation' lesson. Includes lesson objectives, discussion prompts, detailed answer keys for the analysis worksheet, and common student misconceptions.
