Hi,

I would like to know if there are higher levels of recombination
of markers near telomeres in any model system plants:
tomatoes, potatoes, Tobacco, Arabidopsis, etc... I have been told
that this is true for Arabidopsis, but this has not been
verified by anyone. I would be grateful for the help--especially
if you can supply references. Thanks.
