Nonmutagenic carcinogens induce intrachromosomal recombination in dividing yeast cells. [PDF]
A large number of animal and human carcinogens without apparent genotoxic activity exist (nonmutagenic carcinogens) that are difficult or impossible to detect with the currently used short-term tests.

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.

Characterizing meiotic recombination rates across the genomes of nonhuman primates is important for understanding the genetics of primate populations, performing genetic analyses of phenotypic variation and reconstructing the evolution of human ...

SUMOylation of Rad52-Rad59 synergistically change the outcome of mitotic recombination [PDF]
Homologous recombination (HR) is essential for maintenance of genome stability through double-strand break (DSB) repair, but at the same time HR can lead to loss of heterozygosity and uncontrolled recombination can be genotoxic.

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

The extent of error-prone replication-restart by homologous recombination is controlled by Exo1 and checkpoint proteins [PDF]
Genetic instability, a hallmark of cancer, can occur when the replication machinery encounters a barrier. The intra-S phase checkpoint maintains stalled replication forks in a replication-competent configuration by phosphorylating replisome components ...

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.

Recombination and Population Mosaic of a Multifunctional Viral Gene, Adeno-Associated Virus cap [PDF]
Homologous recombination is a dominant force in evolution and results in genetic mosaics. To detect evidence of recombination events and assess the biological significance of genetic mosaics, genome sequences for various viral populations of reasonably ...

Genetic recombination as DNA repair [PDF]
AbstractMaintenance of sexual reproduction and genetic recombination imposes physiological costs when compared to parthenogenic reproduction, most prominently: for maintaining the corresponding (molecular) machinery, for finding a mating partner, and through the decreased fraction of females in a population, which decreases the reproductive capacity ...

Genetic Recombination in Caulobacter [PDF]
SUMMARY: Auxotrophic, phage-resistant and streptomycin-resistant mutants of Caulobacter were used to demonstrate genetic recombination in this genus. Forty of a possible 170 mating pairs gave recombinant frequencies of from 100 to 1000 times greater than reversion frequencies for the markers used.
