Scientists map human DNA recombination, revealing differences between sexes and boosting fertility research.

Scientists at deCODE genetics/Amgen have created the first complete map of human DNA recombination during reproduction, a process vital for genetic diversity. Published in Nature, the map reveals differences in recombination between men and women, offering insights into fertility issues and pregnancy complications. This breakthrough enhances understanding of genetic diversity and human evolution, potentially improving fertility treatments and disease diagnosis.
