From: The potential of shifting recombination hotspots to increase genetic gain in livestock breeding

Fig. 4

Genetic variance (a), genic variance (b) and genetic gain (c) against time for generations 0 to 80. The figure shows where each chromosome was split into 500 regions of which 50 were recombination hotspots. The red lines indicate when recombination hotspots were kept constant and the blue lines show when they were shifted. The solid lines indicate when QTN were outside recombination hotspots in generations −20 to 0 and the dashed lines indicate when QTN were in recombination hotspots in generations −20 to 0
