Crossing over results in the formation of new combination of characters in an organism called recombinants. In this, segments of DNA are broken and recombined to produce new combinations of alleles. This process is called recombination.

The widely accepted model of DNA recombination during crossing over is Holliday’s hybrid DNA model.
