Diagram representing the reciprocal translocation between chromosomes VIII and XVI observed in wine yeast strains. This translocation was mediated by crossing-over between microhomology regions of the promoters of the ECM34 and SSU1 genes, the locations of which, on chromosomes VIII and XVI, respectively, are indicated by white bars. Small arrows indicate the PCR primers used to amplify those regions involved in the recombination.
