Unusual decay: Recombination loss leads to splicing errors in green algae

Recombination suppression leads to genomic erosion through an accumulation of deleterious mutations. A new study in PLOS Biology reveals an outstanding increase in aberrant splicing in non-recombining genomic regions in green algae.
