From: Parental origin of chromosomes influences crossover activity within the Kcnq1 transcriptionally imprinted domain of Mus musculus

Figure 3

Meiotic recombination imprinting at three hotspots within the Kcnq1 domain. Recombination events within the Kcnq1 domain were mapped at hotspot resolution. Hotspot frequencies from reciprocal parental crosses were compared at five novel hotspots. Hotspots Th and Kcnq1 were not affected by parental origin of chromosome. Hotspots Cdkn1c, Slc22a18 and Nap1l4 (boxed) clustered within a 100 kb region and showed meiotic recombination imprinting with higher crossover activity in the CAST♀ × B6♂ direction of the parental cross.
