Figure 4. Changes in recombination rate vs. background recombination rate in the Missouri cohort within SFTPB (a) and in the HapMap Project Yoruban and European cohorts (http://www.hapmap.org) near (± 50 kb) SFTPB (b).
(a) Within SFTPB, little change in recombination rate is detectable; positions of translated exons shown in numbered blue boxes
(b) Near SFTPB, a 20 fold to 80 fold increase in recombination rate is present within SFTPB.
