Recombination topics include: Molecular basics of homologous recombination, site specific recombination and higher organisms recombination. Genetic recombination is the exchange of genetic material between different organisms. It results in offspring with combinations of traits that are different from those of either parent. Recombination occurs during meiosis, a process that breaks and recombines pieces of DNA to produce new combinations of genes. Recombination scrambles pieces of maternal and paternal genes, which ensures that genes assort independently from one another. Here are some...

Genetic recombination is the exchange of genetic material between different organisms. It results in offspring with combinations of traits that are different from those of either parent. Recombination occurs during meiosis, a process that breaks and recombines pieces of DNA to produce new combinations of genes. Recombination scrambles pieces of maternal and paternal genes, which ensures that genes assort independently from one another. Here are some types of recombination: Homologous recombination: A type of genetic recombination in which genetic information is exchanged between two similar or identical molecules of double-stranded or single-stranded nucleic acids. Nonhomologous recombination: Involves DNA molecules that aren't necessarily related to one another. Site-specific recombination: Occurs between specific, short sequences, typically having similarities. Other types of recombination include: Replicative recombination, Mitotic recombination. Show less
