title: Random recombination and evolution of drug resistance.
abstract: The effects of random recombination on the random mutation and natural selection phenomenon can be understood by considering the mathematical behavior of this phenomenon. This phenomenon operates in a mathematically predicable behavior, which when understood, explains the empirical observations of this phenomenon. The mathematical behavior of random recombination is derived using the principles given by probability theory. The derivation of the equations describing the random recombination phenomenon is done in the context of an empirical example.
