Abstract excerpt
We analyzed DNA variation at the acidic chitinase (ChiA) locus of Arabis gemmifera and among its eight related species. Nucleotide diversity (pi) of the entire locus in A. gemmifera was 0.0032, which was one third that of A. thaliana. In A. gemmifera, an excess of unique polymorphisms yielded significantly negative results with the tests of Tajima and Fu and Li. The McDonald and Kreitman test revealed that the...
