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

Influence of geography, seasonality and experimental selection on Chironomus riparius recombination rates [PDF]
BMC GenomicsBackground Understanding recombination rates is crucial in evolutionary biology, as recombination shapes genetic diversity, natural selection, and adaptation. We investigated recombination rate variation in Chironomus riparius across different latitudes,

Mechanisms and impact of genetic recombination in the evolution of Streptococcus pneumoniae
Computational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2015 Streptococcus pneumoniae (the pneumococcus) is a highly recombinogenic bacterium responsible for a high burden of human disease globally. Genetic recombination, a process in which exogenous DNA is acquired and incorporated into its genome, is a key ...

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