B Chromosome Transcriptional Inactivation in the Spermatogenesis of the Grasshopper Eyprepocnemis plorans
According to our results, B1 transcriptional inactivation was triggered in spermatogonia, long before the beginning of meiosis, and was accompanied by H3K9me3 heterochromatinization that was maintained throughout spermatogenesis. Moreover, when two B1 were present, the transcriptional inactivation did not preclude synapsis and recombination achievement by these chromosomes.
