The trading of fragments of genetic
material between chromosomes before the egg and sperm cells are created. Key features of
recombination include the point-to-point association of paired chromosomes (synapsis)
followed by the visible exchange of segments (crossing over) at X-shaped crosspoints
(chiasmata). Recombination is the principal way of creating genetic diversity between
generations. By shuffling the genetic deck of cards, recombination ensures that children
are dealt a different genetic hand than their parents.
