meiotic DNA double-strand break formation involved in reciprocal meiotic recombination

id: GO:0010780
name: meiotic DNA double-strand break formation involved in reciprocal meiotic recombination
namespace: biological_process
type: go
obsolete: False

Description: The cell cycle process in which double-strand breaks are generated at defined hotspots throughout the genome during meiosis I resulting in meiotic recombination. Meiotic recombination is the cell cycle process in which double strand breaks are formed and repaired through a double Holliday junction intermediate.
