Selection for Recombination is a population genetic theory that explains the evolutionary advantage of increased recombination rates in regions of the genome subject to background selection, where the reduction of neutral genetic diversity by purifying selection creates indirect selection favoring recombination as a mechanism to enhance the efficiency of natural selection.
