An epigenetic mutation responsible for natural variation in floral symmetry.

Nature - 9 Sept 1999

Cubas P, Vincent C, Coen E

Abstract excerpt

Although there have been many molecular studies of morphological mutants generated in the laboratory, it is unclear how these are related to mutants in natural populations, where the constraints of natural selection and breeding structure are quite different. Here we characterize a naturally occurring mutant of Linaria vulgaris, originally described more than 250 years ago by Linnaeus, in which the fundamental...
