Frequency of event types from sequencing data for three wild-type tetrads and five <i>spo11</i> hypomorphs.

WT tetrads were sporulated at 30°C. spo11 alleles were sporulated at temperature specified in their name. Columns 2–6 are NCO events and columns 7–13 are CO events. GC is gene conversion. () indicate frequency relative to total detectable events CO + NCO. “4∶0's” are gene conversions where all four chromatids display the same parental configuration. “2-strand NCO” refers to NCOs in which two chromatids exhibit a gene conversion within 3 kb of each other measured end-to-end and are presumably part of the same event. “Disc. Event” is the number of events in which there was discontinuity between multiple gene conversion tracts. GC 1 SNP” refers to the number of GCs in which the tract is only defined by a single marker. “CO - no tracts” are COs without a detectable GC tract. “4 strand dble CO's” are two COs involving all four chromatids and occur within 3 kb of each other. One of these was included in a 2-stranded NCO. “GC total” is the total number of CO events associated with one or more gene conversions. Total Events are Total NCO + Total CO.
