Meiotic recombination is a genetic process that is critical for proper chromosome segregation in many organisms. Despite being fundamental for organismal fitness, rates of crossing over vary greatly between taxa.

Contribution of crossing over to genetic variance in maize and wheat populations [PDF]
Crossing over breaks linkages and leads to a wider array of allele combinations. My objective was to assess the contribution of crossing over to genetic variance (VG) in maize (Zea mays L.) and wheat (Triticum aestivum L.).

Selection strategies for the development of maize introgression populations. [PDF]
Introgression libraries are valuable resources for QTL detection and breeding, but their development is costly and time-consuming. Selection strategies for the development of introgression populations with a limited number of individuals and high ...

A cytological demonstration of "genetic" crossing-over [PDF]
A stage in meiosis where the paired chromosomes form loops, coming together at points distributed at random along their length, was first described by Rückert (1892) inPristiurus. These points we now recognise in suitable material as exchanges of partner amongst the four pairing half-chromosomes.

DNA double-strand break repair: genetic determinants of flanking crossing-over. [PDF]
Whether or not homologous interaction of two DNA molecules results in crossing-over of the flanking sequences is an important decision in view of genome organization. Several homologous recombination models, including the double-strand break repair models, explain this decision as choice between two alternative modes of resolution of Holliday-type ...

Meiotic crossing over ensures proper segregation of homologous chromosomes and generates genotypic diversity. Despite these functions, little is known about the genetic factors and population genetic forces involved in the evolution of recombination rate

Genetic Mapping in Escherichia coli K-12 by Radiation-Induced Crossing-Over [PDF]
Conventional methods for chromosomal mapping in Escherichia coli are (i) interruption of matings to obtain minimum marker entry times, (ii) linkage analysis of recombinants, and (iii) cotransduction. Method (i) has a resolution of about 0.5 min (5 × 10 4 nucleotides) and is not useful for ...

A high-resolution crossover landscape in Drosophila santomea reveals rapid and concerted evolution of multiple properties of crossing over control. [PDF]
Crossing over is a fundamental process in sexually reproducing species, ensuring proper chromosome segregation during gamete formation and generating new allelic combinations that enhance adaptation. Despite its essential role, genes involved in crossing

Male crossing over and genetic sexing systems in the Australian sheep blowfly Lucilia cuprina [PDF]
Field-female killing (FK) systems based on deleterious mutations and Y-autosome translocations are being evaluated for genetic control of the Australian sheep blowfly, Lucilia cuprina. Experience during field trials has shown that mass-reared colonies of FK strains are subject to genetic deterioration, caused mainly by genetic recombination in males. A
