The recombination rate track represents calculated rates of recombination based on the genetic maps from deCODE (Halldorsson et al., 2019) and 1000 Genomes (2013 Phase 3 release, lifted from hg19). The deCODE map is more recent, has a higher resolution and was natively created on hg38 and therefore recommended. For the Recomb. deCODE average track, the recombination rates for chrX represent the female rate.

This track also includes a subtrack with all the individual deCODE recombination events and another subtrack with several thousand de-novo mutations found in the deCODE sequencing data. These two tracks are hidden by default and have to be switched on explicitly on the configuration page.
