Genetic recombination is most closely associated with: Choice D: Viral replication in host cells
Definition:
Genetic recombination (otherwise termed genetic reshuffling) is simply the exchange of genetic material between different organisms which leads to production of offspring with combinations of traits that differ from those found in either parent.
In retroviruses, recombination actually occurs at the point during replication when the retrovirus genome is in a DNA form and takes place by the same break-rejoin technique as in cells and DNA viruses.
Recombination can occur both between two related retroviruses and between the retrovirus DNA and the host DNA.
