chiasma
chiasma (pl. chiasmata) In genetics, a cross-shaped structure that forms the points of contact between non-sister
chromatids of
homologous chromosomes first seen in the
tetrads of the diplotene stage of meiotic
prophase. Chiasmata are thus the visible expression of
crossing-over of genes. There are usually one or more chiasmata per chromosome per meiosis. See also
BREAKAGE AND REUNION.
