Crossing over...Markov meets Mendel.

PLoS computational biology - 1 Jan 2012

Mneimneh Saad

Abstract excerpt

Chromosomal crossover is a biological mechanism to combine parental traits. It is perhaps the first mechanism ever taught in any introductory biology class. The formulation of crossover, and resulting recombination, came about 100 years after Mendel's famous experiments. To a great extent, this formulation is consistent with the basic genetic findings of Mendel. More importantly, it provides a mathematical...
