Abstract: Significance This study explores the cross-talk between two major drivers of genome evolution—meiotic recombination and transposable elements (TEs), selfish genetic elements that move within genomes. In many species, genomic regions with low recombination rates often… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract The number and placement of meiotic crossover events during meiosis have important implications for the fidelity of chromosome segregation as well as patterns of inheritance. Despite the functional importance of recombination, recombination landscapes vary… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/mec.70108
Abstract: Understanding the drivers of heterogeneous genomic divergence is essential for uncovering the mechanisms that generate and constrain biodiversity. The extent to which adaptation and speciation are facilitated by reorganisation of the recombination landscape remains untested… read more here.
