    Summary

    High-recombination alleles can benefit both host and parasite populations during antagonistic interactions. This evolution of the recombination system offers a short-term selective advantage in co-evolutionary dynamics.

    Area of Science:

    • Evolutionary biology
    • Population genetics
    • Genetics of host-parasite interactions

    Context:

    • Antagonistic species interactions, such as host-parasite dynamics, drive evolutionary processes.
    • The genetic architecture of host resistance and parasite virulence, governed by polygenic systems, influences selection intensity.
    • Understanding the evolution of recombination systems is crucial for comprehending genetic diversity maintenance and adaptation.

    Purpose:

    • To investigate the evolutionary dynamics of recombination systems in response to antagonistic species interactions.
    • To model the interplay between host-parasite genetics and the evolution of recombination modifiers.
    • To determine the selective pressures on recombination rates in co-evolving populations.

    Summary:

    • This study models the genetic structure of interacting host and parasite populations.
    • Numerical simulations using the genetic operators method explore the dynamics of the recombination system.
    • Results indicate that alleles promoting high recombination can confer a transient selective advantage to both interacting species.

    Impact:

    • Highlights the potential for recombination rate evolution to be influenced by antagonistic species interactions.
    • Suggests that high recombination can provide a short-term adaptive benefit in co-evolutionary arms races.
    • Provides insights into the maintenance of genetic variation in populations facing strong selective pressures from antagonists.
