CENTROMERE
14
Definition
Pronunciation: //ˈsɛntɹə(ʊ)mɪə//
noun
- (genetics) The central region of a eukaryotic chromosome where the kinetochore is assembled."The aberrant bivalents with single terminal chiasmata are specially liable to this failure of orientation, presumably because their centromeres lie exceptionally far apart, as is the case in similar circumstances in a Lilium hybrid with reduced chiasma-frequency."
