On the extent of linkage disequilibrium in the genome of farm animals
S Qanbari - Frontiers in genetics, 2020 - frontiersin.org
Given the importance of linkage disequilibrium (LD) in gene mapping and evolutionary
inferences, I characterize in this review the pattern of LD and discuss the influence of human …

Whole‐genome patterns of linkage disequilibrium across flycatcher populations clarify the causes and consequences of fine‐scale recombination rate variation in …
Recombination rate is heterogeneous across the genome of various species and so are
genetic diversity and differentiation as a consequence of linked selection. However, we still …

Molecular mechanisms for environmentally induced and evolutionarily rapid redistribution (plasticity) of meiotic recombination
RU Protacio, TO Mukiza, MK Davidson, WP Wahls - Genetics, 2022 - academic.oup.com
It has long been known (circa 1917) that environmental conditions, as well as speciation,
can affect dramatically the frequency distribution of Spo11/Rec12-dependent meiotic …

The feather pattern autosomal barring in chicken is strongly associated with segregation at the MC1R locus
Color patterns within individual feathers are common in birds but little is known about the
genetic mechanisms causing such patterns. Here, we investigate the genetic basis for …
