Chromosomal inversions are structural variations that play a significant role in suppressing genetic recombination, thereby fixing favorable allelic combinations. These inversions are crucial for ...

Genetic recombination in Saccharomyces cerevisiae underpins both the faithful repair of DNA damage and the generation of genetic diversity during meiosis. Central to this process is the repair of ...

Kari Stefansson CEO of deCODE genetics talks to Bjarni V. Halldorsson, scientist at deCODE genetics about the paper, complete recombination map of the human-genome. Disclaimer: AAAS and EurekAlert!

Genetic recombination in Escherichia coli is a fundamental process that repairs DNA damage, maintains genome integrity and generates genetic diversity. Two principal pathways operate in concert: the ...
