Molecular Genetics of Recombination edited by Andrés Aguilera, Rodney Rothstein.

Genetic recombination is an important process involved in shaping the genetic make up of progeny. Increasingly, it has become evident that recombination is a DNA repair pathway crucial during DNA replication in vegetatively growing cells. It plays a critical role in preserving the integrity of the g...
