(a) The number of events per meiosis for females (red, n=9152) and males (blue, n=9150), with median values indicated by a vertical line. For phase-unknown individuals, the average number of events per meiosis was used. (b) Squared Pearson correlation between the 23andMe map, the deCODE map and the HapMap map, as a function of scale. (c) The number of recombination events as a function of parental age for females (red, n=9152) and males (blue, n=9150), relative to parents of between 20 and 25 years of age. Parents were grouped into 5-year age bins, and the mean number of events estimated. Error bars show a 95% confidence interval for each group.
