Hadany, L. & Beker, T. On the evolutionary advantage of fitness-associated recombination. Genetics 165, 2167–2179 (2003).

Hadany and Beker found that populations with fitness associated recombination (FAR) are fitter and that a mutation that confers FAR is much more likely to fix in a population than a mutation that confers recombination at a uniform rate. Their findings suggest that sexual reproduction is more likely to evolve with FAR than with a uniform recombination rate.
