Recombination and Genetic Diversity
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
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
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
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.

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 ...

Genetic Recombination in Mycobacteria [PDF]
Evidence for genetic recombination between Mycobacterium smegmatis strain Rabinowitchi (Rab) and strain Jucho or PM5 is presented. Backcrosses of recombinants by either parental strain indicated four different types of mating behavior, suggesting that the mycobacterial compatibilities are controlled by at least two ...

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]
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.
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.
