Genetic recombination is targeted towards gene promoter regions in dogs [PDF]
, 2013 The identification of the H3K4 trimethylase, PRDM9, as the gene responsible for recombination hotspot localization has provided considerable insight into the mechanisms by which recombination is initiated in mammals.

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.

Genetic Recombination in Mycobacteria [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1973 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 ...

Inference of Ancestral Recombination Graphs through Topological Data Analysis [PDF]
, 2016 The recent explosion of genomic data has underscored the need for interpretable and comprehensive analyses that can capture complex phylogenetic relationships within and across species.

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2019 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.

sequenceLDhot: Detecting Recombination Hotspots. [PDF]
, 2006 Motivation: There is much local variation in recombination rates across the human genome—with the majority of recombination occuring in recombination hotspots—short regions of around ~2 kb in length that have much higher recombination rates than ...

Complete genome sequences of two feline Leukemia virus subgroup B isolates with novel recombination sites [PDF]
, 2013 It is generally accepted that all primary isolates of feline leukemia virus (FeLV) contain a subgroup A virus (FeLV-A) that is essential for transmission.

Genetic characterization of Pepino mosaic virus isolates from Belgian greenhouse tomatoes reveals genetic recombination [PDF]
, 2008 Over a period of a few years, Pepino mosaic virus (PepMV) has become one of the most important viral diseases in tomato production worldwide. Infection by PepMV can cause a broad range of symptoms on tomato plants, often leading to significant financial ...

Multiple mating but not recombination causes quantitative increase in offspring genetic diversity for varying genetic architectures. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 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

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.
