On the utility of oddities: exceptional bee reproduction illuminates fundamental questions of recombination.

Scott William Roy1.   

Abstract

Despite its importance, the selective and mechanistic forces governing recombination remain obscure. A recent study of facultatively asexual honeybees suggests a clear case of adaptive adjustment of recombination rate. That these bees' atypical genetics were central to the experiment underscores the utility of genetic oddities as model organisms for studying fundamental questions.
