The genetic architecture of disease resistance in plants and the maintenance of recombination by parasites.

Molecular ecology - 1 Jan 2001

Kover P X, Caicedo A L

Abstract excerpt

Parasites represent strong selection on host populations because they are ubiquitous and can drastically reduce host fitness. It has been hypothesized that parasite selection could explain the widespread occurrence of recombination because it is a coevolving force that favours new genetic combinations in the host. A review of deterministic models for the maintenance of recombination reveals that for recombination...
