Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Meiotic recombination events include crossovers and non-crossovers or gene conversions. Although the rate of crossovers is often used for genetic mapping, the gene conversion events are not well studied especially in outbred species, which could produce distorted markers and thus affect the precision of genetic maps. RESULTS: We proposed a strategy for identifying gene conversion events in Populus...
