<L. Xu> studied genetic control of <meiosis> in <budding yeast>. A 1995 study characterized the <NDT80 gene> through <mutations> that prevented progression beyond <pachytene>.<NDT80, a meiosis-specific gene required for exit from pachytene in Saccharomyces cerevisiae by L. Xu and others>[Molecular and Cellular Biology 15, pp. 6572–6581; Abstract and primary byline]{ref}
The arrested <cells> retained full-length <synaptonemal complexes>, while much meiotic <genetic recombination> still occurred. This separated progression to later stages from successful execution of every earlier molecular event: a <cell> can recombine <DNA> yet fail to complete <meiosis>.<NDT80, a meiosis-specific gene required for exit from pachytene in Saccharomyces cerevisiae by L. Xu and others>[Abstract; mutant arrest, chromosome morphology and recombination assays]{ref}
