Clustering of Drosophila melanogaster immune genes in interplay with recombination rate.
<h4>Background</h4>Gene order in eukaryotic chromosomes is not random and has been linked to coordination of gene expression, chromatin structure and also recombination rate. The evolution of recombination rate is especially relevant for genes involved in immunity because host-parasite c...
