Genetic architecture of individual meiotic crossover rate and distribution in Atlantic Salmon

Abstract Meiotic recombination through chromosomal crossovers ensures proper segregation of homologous chromosomes during meiosis, while also breaking down linkage disequilibrium and shuffling alleles at loci located on the same chromosome. Rates of recombination can vary between species, but also b...
