Abstract

Observations on meiosis in Tulipa show that it has incomplete terminalization of chiasmata between diplotene and metaphase. They support the theory of behavior earlier adopted, especially in indicating that the original position of a chiasma influences its chance of becoming terminal. They also make it probable that terminalization occurs in all organisms, and further investigations will be undertaken to analyze the slight changes between diplotene and metaphase that have hitherto escaped notice.
