Genome-wide distribution of recombination (A) Comparison of the sperm recombination rates to the HapMap and deCODE (male-specific) genetic maps across the human genome. We used a 3Mb statistical window size and a 1Mb moving step. (B) A personal genetic map. Relations of physical and genetic length of selected chromosomes. (C) Distance distribution of coexisted crossovers on the same chromosome. The experimental data is fitted with gamma distribution (α=3.35), indicating a strong deviation from random distribution. In comparison, we generated random crossovers based on physical and genetic distances.
