Deskripsi

Meiotic crossovers (COs) generate genetic variation and ensure proper chromosome segregation. Here, the authors develop a method for identifying COs at kilobase resolution in pooled recombinants using linked-read sequencing data, and apply it to investigate genome-wide CO landscapes of Arabidopsis thaliana.
