Recombination is also reduced within a pericentric inversion. No dicentric bridges or acentric fragments are produced.

Recombinant chromosomes have too many copies of some genes and no copies of others, so gametes that receive the recombinant chromosomes cannot produce viable progeny.

This suppression of recombination allows alleles adapted to a specific environment to remain together, unshuffled by recombinationsomes cannot produce viable progeny.
