Population demographic history can cause the appearance of recombination hotspots.

American journal of human genetics - 4 May 2012

Johnston Henry R, Cutler David J

Abstract excerpt

Although the prevailing view among geneticists suggests that recombination hotspots exist ubiquitously across the human genome, there is only limited experimental evidence from a few genomic regions to support the generality of this claim. A small number of true recombination hotspots are well su...
