Hwang Ho-Yon, Wang Jiou
Abstract excerpt
Greater molecular divergence and genetic diversity are present in regions of high recombination in many species. Studies describing the correlation between variant abundance and recombination rate have long focused on recombination in the context of linked selection models, whereby interference between linked sites under positive or negative selection reduces genetic diversity in regions of low recombination....
