Abstract excerpt
Genetic recombination plays two essential biological roles. It ensures the fidelity of the transmission of genetic information from one generation to the next and it generates new combinations of genetic variants. Therefore, recombination is a critical process in shaping arrangement of polymorphisms within populations. "Recombination breakpoints" in a given set of genomes from individuals in a population divide...
