In the yeast,Saccharomyces cerevisiae, several genes appear to act early in meiotic recombination.HOPlandREDlhave been classified as such early genes. The data in this paper demonstrate that neither aredlnor ahoplmutation can rescue the inviable spores produced by arad52 spol3strain; this phenotype helps to distinguish these two genes from other early meiotic recombination genes such asSPOll, REC104, orA4EI4. In contrast, either aredlor ahoplmutation can rescue arad50S spol3strain; this phenotype is similar to that conferred by mutations in the other early recombination genes(e.g., REC104). These two different results can be explained because the data presented here indicate that arad50Smutation does not diminish meiotic intrachromosomal recombination, similar to the mutant phenotypes conferred byredlorhopl. Of course,REDlandHOPldo act in the normal meiotic interchromosomal recombination pathway; they reduce interchromosomal recombination to ~10% of normal levels. We demonstrate that a mutation in a gene(REC104)required for initiation of exchange is completely epistatic to a mutation inREDl. Finally, mutations in eitherHOPlorRED1reduce the number of doublestrand breaks observed at theHIS2meiotic recombination hotspot.
