deCODE genetics: Complete recombination map of the human-genome, a major step in genetics

REYKJAVIK, Iceland, Jan. 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Scientists at deCODE genetics/Amgen have constructed a complete map of how human DNA is mixed as it is passed down during reproduction. The map marks a major step in the understanding of genetic diversity and its impact on health and fertility. It continues 25 years of research at deCODE genetics into how new diversity is generated in the human genome, and its relationship to health and disease. Bjarni V. Halldorsson and Kari Stefansson, scientists at deC ...
