Accurate chromosome segregation depends on the precise regulation of mitotic progression, including the timing of mitosis and proper regulation of spindle assembly checkpoint.
Aurora kinases play important roles in many events during cell mitosis, such as centrosome maturation and separation, spindle assembly and maintenance, chromosome segregation, cytokinesis and so on.
The control gene(S) for chromosome segregation existed in the P genome of Agropyron, thus causing formation of functional gamete and self-fertility of the hybrids involving Agropyron.
