Hi all,
I've been learning about mitotic recombination and how it was discovered via 'twin spots' in Drosophila. I was asked this question: why might there be cases where one spot (of the two forming the twin spot) is bigger than the other?

Any ideas? I think it's just due to the normal development pattern (one daughter cell after mitotic recombination producing more descendants than the other daughter cell).

Thanks for any help!

Hi there,

I tried searching this for a couple minutes, using keys words like unequal and uneven mitotic recombination. Couldn't really find anything useful except for these two articles. First one is more useful than the second. Let me know what you end up discovering.
