Abstract excerpt
It is not clear to what extent the orthologues of genes that are adaptively important in one species also contribute to adaptive variation in others. Here, we examine Arabidopsis lyrata to assess the functional and evolutionary significance of natural variation in an orthologue of the gene RPW8 known to be a major determinant of powdery mildew resistance in Arabidopsis thaliana. We assessed the sequence variation...
