The Density of Recombination-Associated Genomic Features Does Not Generally Explain the Broad-Scale Crossover Patterns in Chicken and Guinea Fowl

The Density of Recombination-Associated Genomic Features Does Not Generally Explain the Broad-Scale Crossover Patterns in Chicken and Guinea Fowl

Meiotic recombination is essential for chromosomal segregation and facilitates the exchange between homologs, which leads to the transmission of new combinations of linked alleles to the progeny. The eukaryotic meiotic machinery is generally highly conserved, but the frequency of crossover occurrenc...
