Hypothesis testing of meiotic recombination rates from population genetic data.

BMC genetics - 30 Nov 2014

Yin Junming

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Meiotic recombination, one of the central biological processes studied in population genetics, comes in two known forms: crossovers and gene conversions. A number of previous studies have shown that when one of these two events is nonexistent in the genealogical model, the point estimation of the corresponding recombination rate by population genetic methods tends to be inflated. Therefore, it has...
