Abstract excerpt
The previous molecular identification of a flowering time QTL segregating in the Arabidopsis L er x Cvi cross, demonstrated that natural allelic variation at the blue light photoreceptor CRY2 gene affects flowering time (El-Assal et al., 2001). In addition, previous works on the same cross have mapped several QTL affecting other unrelated life history traits in the CRY2 genomic region. In the present report, we...
