Recombination occurs when two molecules of DNA exchange pieces of their genetic material with each other. One of the most notable examples of recombination takes place during meiosis (specifically, during prophase I), when homologous chromosomes line up in pairs and swap segments of DNA

There are five substages to prophase I. Genetic exchange happens during the fourth stage, Diplonema. This process is also called crossing over.
There are many ways that genetic recombination could occur in bacteria. One way that it occurs is because of habitat.

Crossing over occurs during Prophase I.
Genetic recombination occurs during meiosis cell division. As genes cross over during this process, scientists track the genes to study their linkage.
A breakpoint is defined as the location where a recombination event occurs in a sequence.
The process by which genotype becomes expressed as phenotype is called recombination. Recombination usually occurs naturally and during meiosis.
Recombination occurs when two molecules of DNA exchange pieces of their genetic material with each other. One of the most notable examples of recombination takes place during meiosis (specifically, during prophase I), when homologous chromosomes line up in pairs and swap segments of DNA
It's also called "general recombination".Sometimes homologous recombination is mistakenly called "crossover", but crossover is a result of homologous recombination and not really synonymous.
During meiosis, genetic recombination of homologous chromosomes occurs. So meiosis does result in genetic variation. After prophase I, during which crossing over occurs, every chromosome will have some maternal DNA and some paternal DNA.
There are five substages to prophase I. Genetic exchange happens during the fourth stage, Diplonema. This process is also called crossing over.
Recombination in meiosis. Recombination occurs when two molecules of DNA exchange pieces of their genetic material with each other. Recombination occurs randomly in nature as a normal event of meiosis and is enhanced by the phenomenon of crossing over, in which gene sequences called linkage groups are disrupted, resulting in an exchange of segments between paired chromosomes that are undergoing separation.
There does not seem to be much difference. Recombination introduces genetic diversity. Single Crossing over results in genetic recombination. Double crossovers may or may not result in genetic recombination.
