Details

A recombination matrix is a square matrix of size equal to the number of genotypes. It is a probability matrix in that the sum of the values in each row is equal to 1. For a given genotype, the row associated with it describes the probabilistic proportions that lead by recombination between diploid loci to the production of the other genotypes (and of itself if there are no mutations).
