Expression level polymorphisms: heritable traits shaping natural variation.
Trends in plant science - 1 Sept 2011
Delker Carolin, Quint Marcel
Abstract excerpt
Natural accessions of many species harbor a wealth of genetic variation visible in a large array of phenotypes. Although expression level polymorphisms (ELPs) in several genes have been shown to contribute to variation in diverse traits, their general impact on adaptive variation has likely been underestimated. At present, ELPs have predominantly been correlated to quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) that occupy...
