The Red Queen and the persistence of linkage-disequilibrium oscillations in finite and infinite populations
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The Red Queen Hypothesis (RQH) suggests that the coevolutionary dynamics of host-parasite systems can generate selection for increased host recombination. Since host-parasite interactions often have a strong genetic basis, recombinat...
