Although many studies have been made in an attempt to understand the mechanisms of chromosome pairing and genetic recombination, data on mammalian oogenesis and spermatogenesis are sparse. In the experiments reported here, spermatogenesis of the hibernating male golden hamster was used to test the effect of hibernation in the cold on some essential aspects of meiosis in this species. It was demonstrated that this physiologic state can result in increased duration of preleptotene synthesis of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), abnormalities in bivalent pairing, reduced crossing-over, and increased chromosomal nondisjunction. These data provide evidence of the usefulness of this model for further studies of these genetic phenomena in a male mammal.
