Variation and genetic control of individual recombination rates in Norwegian Red dairy cattle

open access: yesJournal of Dairy Science, 2023
: Meiotic recombination is an important evolutionary mechanism that breaks up linkages between loci and creates novel haplotypes for selection to act upon.

Recombination and Genetic Diversity

open access: yesTrends in Computational and Applied Mathematics, 2012
In this paper we present a spatial stochastic model for genetic recombination, that answers if diversity is preserved in an infinite population of recombinating individuals distributed spatially.

Genetic variation in recombination rate in the pig

open access: yesGenetics Selection Evolution, 2021
Background Meiotic recombination results in the exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes. Recombination rate varies between different parts of the genome, between individuals, and is influenced by genetics.

Mapping of meiotic recombination in human preimplantation blastocysts

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2023
Recombination is essential for physical attachments and genetic diversity. The Han Chinese population is the largest ethnic group worldwide, therefore, the construction of a genetic map regarding recombination for the population is essential.

Targeted recombination of homologous chromosomes using CRISPR‐Cas9

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, 2023
CRISPR mutagenesis is an efficient way to disrupt specific target genes in many model organisms. We previously devised a targeted CRISPR recombination method to generate intragenic recombinants of alleles in Drosophila.

Allopolyploidization increases genetic recombination in the ancestral diploid D genome during wheat evolution

open access: yesCrop Journal, 2022
Genetic recombination produces new allelic combinations, thereby introducing variation for domestication. Allopolyploidization has increased the evolutionary potential of hexaploid common wheat by conferring the advantages of heterosis and gene ...

Assessing by Modeling the Consequences of Increased Recombination in Recurrent Selection of Oryza sativa and Brassica rapa

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2019
Meiotic recombination generates genetic diversity but in most species the number of crossovers per meiosis is limited. Previous modeling studies showed that increasing recombination can enhance response to selection.

Multiple mating but not recombination causes quantitative increase in offspring genetic diversity for varying genetic architectures. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Explaining the evolution of sex and recombination is particularly intriguing for some species of eusocial insects because they display exceptionally high mating frequencies and genomic recombination rates. Explanations for both phenomena are based on the

A high-resolution single nucleotide polymorphism genetic map of the mouse genome.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2006
High-resolution genetic maps are required for mapping complex traits and for the study of recombination. We report the highest density genetic map yet created for any organism, except humans.
