Meiotic, genomic and evolutionary properties of crossover distribution in Drosophila yakuba.

The number and location of crossovers across genomes are highly regulated during meiosis, yet the key components controlling them are fast evolving, hindering our understanding of the mechanistic causes and evolutionary consequences of changes in crossover rates. Drosophila melanogaster has been a m...
