The Genetic Architecture of Natural Variation in Recombination Rate in Drosophila melanogaster. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2016
Meiotic recombination ensures proper chromosome segregation in many sexually reproducing organisms. Despite this crucial function, rates of recombination are highly variable within and between taxa, and the genetic basis of this variation remains poorly ...

Genetic variants in REC8, RNF212, and PRDM9 influence male recombination in cattle. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2012
We use >250,000 cross-over events identified in >10,000 bovine sperm cells to perform an extensive characterization of meiotic recombination in male cattle.

Genome landscape and genetic architecture of recombination in domestic goats (Capra hircus) [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics Selection Evolution
Background Recombination is a fundamental biological process, both in participating to the creation of viable gametes and as a driver of genetic diversity. Characterising recombination is therefore of strong interest in breeding populations.

Recombination in Enteroviruses, a Multi-Step Modular Evolutionary Process

open access: yesViruses, 2019
RNA recombination is a major driving force in the evolution and genetic architecture shaping of enteroviruses. In particular, intertypic recombination is implicated in the emergence of most pathogenic circulating vaccine-derived polioviruses, which have ...

Banana bunchy top virus genetic diversity in Pakistan and association of diversity with recombination in its genomes.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Banana Bunchy top virus (BBTV) is a multipartite circular single strand DNA virus that belongs to genus Babuvirus and family Nanoviridae. It causes significant crop losses worldwide and also in Pakistan.

Genetic analysis of genome-scale recombination rate evolution in house mice. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2011
The rate of meiotic recombination varies markedly between species and among individuals. Classical genetic experiments demonstrated a heritable component to population variation in recombination rate, and specific sequence variants that contribute to ...

Effect of recombination on genetic diversity of Caenorhabditis elegans

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Greater molecular divergence and genetic diversity are present in regions of high recombination in many species. Studies describing the correlation between variant abundance and recombination rate have long focused on recombination in the context of ...

Similarity in recombination rate estimates highly correlates with genetic differentiation in humans. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Recombination varies greatly among species, as illustrated by the poor conservation of the recombination landscape between humans and chimpanzees. Thus, shorter evolutionary time frames are needed to understand the evolution of recombination.
