Dynamics of male meiotic recombination frequency during plant development using Fluorescent Tagged Lines in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
Meiotic homologous recombination plays a central role in creating genetic variability, making it an essential biological process relevant to evolution and crop breeding.

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.

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 ...

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

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

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

Complete genome sequences of two feline Leukemia virus subgroup B isolates with novel recombination sites [PDF]
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 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 ...

Recombination and Self-Adaptation in Multi-objective Genetic Algorithms [PDF]
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 asexual genome of Drosophila
The rate of recombination affects the mode of molecular evolution. In high-recombining sequence, the targets of selection are individual genetic loci; under low recombination, selection collectively acts on large, genetically linked genomic segments ...
