New findings suggest an explanation for the century-old mystery of how chromosome recombination is regulated during sexual reproduction.

Chronische Virusinfektionen wurden bei Prokaryoten bisher nur vereinzelt entdeckt und sind wenig verstanden. Wir haben ein Virus-Wirt-Modellsystem aufgebaut, das ermöglicht, eine chronische Infektion in einem prokaryotischen Wirt zu untersuchen.

Evolution has created ever more complex structures and better-adapted organisms. This is all the more astonishing as most genetic mutations are deleterious. Especially in small asexual populations that do not recombine their genes, unfavourable mutations can accumulate. This process is known as Muller’s ratchet in evolutionary biology. Richard Neher from the Max Planck Institute for Developmental Biology and colleagues have shown mathematically how Muller’s ratchet operates, investigating why populations are not inevitably doomed to extinction despite the continuous influx of deleterious mutations.
