Minimal repeats are ubiquitous sites of crossover and recombination across the human genome
We report ubiquitous and intricate colonies, in which D2Us and D3Us were the primary sites of crossover and recombination. It is plausible that minimal repeats such as D2Us, D3Us, and T2Us mark recombination as a ubiquitous rule across the human genome. This phenomenon is likely to transform our understanding of the magnitude, biological, and evolutionary outcomes of crossover and recombination.
