The Hill-Robertson effect, quasi-truncation selection, and genetic recombination
The Hill-Robertson effect and epistasis are often proposed to explain the prevalence of sexual reproduction and recombination. The Hill-Robertson effect occurs in small populations, where a combination of genetic drift and weak natural selection result in negative linkage disequilibrium. In a large...
