TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that cross-over recombinations occur at nearly all Y-linked palindromes, exposing an Achilles' heel in the mechanism that preserves palindrome-borne genes.

TL;DR: It is proposed that intrapalindrome sequence identity is maintained via noncrossover pathways of homologous recombination, exposing an Achilles' heel in the mechanism that preserves palindrome-borne genes.
