Organellar inheritance in the green lineage: insights from Ostreococcus tauri [PDF]

, 2013
Along the green lineage (Chlorophyta and Streptophyta), mitochondria and chloroplast are mainly uniparentally transmitted and their evolution is thus clonal. The mode of organellar inheritance in their ancestor is less certain.

Reduced meiotic recombination in rhesus macaques and the origin of the human recombination landscape.

PLoS ONE, 2020
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 ...

Comparative genomic analysis reveals occurrence of genetic recombination in virulent Cryptosporidium hominis subtypes and telomeric gene duplications in Cryptosporidium parvum

BMC Genomics, 2015
BackgroundCryptosporidium hominis is a dominant species for human cryptosporidiosis. Within the species, IbA10G2 is the most virulent subtype responsible for all C.

Competition between recombination and epistasis can cause a transition from allele to genotype selection [PDF]

, 2009
Biochemical and regulatory interactions central to biological networks are expected to cause extensive genetic interactions or epistasis affecting the heritability of complex traits and the distribution of genotypes in populations. However, the inference

Recombination and Self-Adaptation in Multi-objective Genetic Algorithms [PDF]

, 2004
This paper investigates the influence of recombination and self-adaptation in real-encoded Multi-Objective Genetic Algorithms (MOGAs). NSGA-II and SPEA2 are used as example to characterize the efficiency of MOGAs in relation to various recombination ...

The genetic architecture of genome‐wide recombination rate variation in allopolyploid wheat revealed by nested association mapping

The Plant Journal, 2018
Summary Recombination affects the fate of alleles in populations by imposing constraints on the reshuffling of genetic information. Understanding the genetic basis of these constraints is critical for manipulating the recombination process to improve the

Genetic recombination as DNA repair [PDF]

, 2015
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 ...

Refined genetic maps reveal sexual dimorphism in human meiotic recombination at multiple scales

Nature Communications, 2017
In humans, males have lower recombination rates than females over the majority of the genome, but the opposite is usually true near the telomeres. These broad-scale differences have been known for decades, yet little is known about differences at the ...

An Eco-Evolutionary approach of Adaptation and Recombination in a large population of varying size [PDF]

, 2014
We identify the genetic signature of a selective sweep in a population described by a birth-and-death process with density dependent competition. We study the limit behaviour for large K, where K scales the population size.

Conserved Genetic Architecture Underlying Individual Recombination Rate Variation in a Wild Population of Soay Sheep (Ovis aries)

Genetics, 2016
Meiotic recombination breaks down linkage disequilibrium (LD) and forms new haplotypes, meaning that it is an important driver of diversity in eukaryotic genomes.
