MSH: Production of new arrangements of DNA by various mechanisms such as assortment and segregation, CROSSING OVER; GENE CONVERSION; GENETIC TRANSFORMATION; GENETIC CONJUGATION; GENETIC TRANSDUCTION; or mixed infection of viruses.,CSP: natural process of exchange of DNA between two homologous chromosomes during mitosis; do not confuse with RECOMBINANT DNA, which applies to artificial DNA constructs.,GO: Any process in which a new genotype is formed by reassortment of genes resulting in gene combinations different from those that were present in the parents. In eukaryotes genetic recombination can occur by chromosome assortment, intrachromosomal recombination, or nonreciprocal interchromosomal recombination. Intrachromosomal recombination occurs by crossing over. In bacteria it may occur by genetic transformation, conjugation, transduction, or F-duction. [ISBN:0198506732],NCI: Any type of DNA sequence rearrangement involving possible exchange and frequent loss of segments of DNA by either homologous recombinat
