Extreme recombination frequencies shape genome variation and evolution in the honeybee, Apis mellifera.

Extreme recombination frequencies shape genome variation and evolution in the honeybee, Apis mellifera.

Meiotic recombination is a fundamental cellular process, with important consequences for evolution and genome integrity. However, we know little about how recombination rates vary across the genomes of most species and the molecular and evolutionary determinants of this variation. The honeybee, Apis...
