Abstract excerpt
Heterogeneities in evolutionary pattern among different loci are commonly observed. To see whether the heterogeneity can also be observed among allelic groups in a single locus, we investigated the coding sequence and the flanking regions of Rpp13, a disease resistance gene in up to 60 accession lines from worldwide populations in Arabidopsis thaliana. An extraordinarily high level of polymorphism (pi=0.098) and...
