Abstract

A review of the literatura of genetic control or recombination is made,
particularly of the "fine control" of genetic recombination in higher fungí.
The regulating genes callee! rec* are dominant in all cases, in reducing recombination
in small chromosome regions sometimes distant from their own
locations. Some genes control recombination in two or more chromosomal
segments, the advantage of such a system of recombination for adjusternent
during ecological changes is discussed as well as the advantage of the system
for the breeding process. A possible model of action for the rec genes at the
molecular level is given and possibilities for future studies in recombination
are outlined. Two other ways of recombination that are possible but hardly
to prove experimentally are presented.
