Abstract excerpt
Levels and patterns of nucleotide diversity vary widely among lineages. Because allopolyploid species contain duplicated (homoeologous) genes, studies of nucleotide diversity at homoeologous loci may facilitate insight into the evolutionary dynamics of duplicated loci. In this study, we describe patterns of sequence diversity from an alcohol dehydrogenase homoeologous locus pair (AdhC) in allotetraploid cotton...
