The process by which genetic material, in the form of chromosomes, is organized into specific structures and then physically separated and apportioned to two or more sets. Any process that modulates the rate, frequency, or extent of homologous chromosome segregation, the cell cycle process whereby replicated homologous chromosomes are organized and then physically separated and apportioned to two sets during the first division of the meiotic cell cycle. Each replicated chromosome, composed of two sister chromatids, aligns at the cell equator, paired with its homologous partner; this pairing off, referred to as synapsis, permits genetic recombination. One homolog (both sister chromatids) of each morphologic type goes into each of the resulting chromosome sets. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the attachment of spindle microtubules to the kinetochore. Any process that is carried out at the cellular level, but not necessarily restricted to a single cell. For example, cell communication occurs among more than one cell, but occurs at the cellular level. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of chromosome segregation, the process by which genetic material, in the form of chromosomes, is organized and then physically separated and apportioned to two or more sets. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of a cellular process, any of those that are carried out at the cellular level, but are not necessarily restricted to a single cell. For example, cell communication occurs among more than one cell, but occurs at the cellular level. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of a biological process. Biological processes are regulated by many means; examples include the control of gene expression, protein modification or interaction with a protein or substrate molecule. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of chromosome segregation, the process by which genetic material, in the form of chromosomes, is organized and then physically separated and apportioned to two or more sets. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of chromosome segregation, the process by which genetic material, in the form of chromosomes, is organized and then physically separated and apportioned to two or more sets. Any process that modulates the rate, frequency, or extent of metaphase plate congression, the alignment of chromosomes at the metaphase plate, a plane halfway between the poles of the spindle. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of sister chromatid segregation. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of sister chromatid cohesion.
