Mapping the genetic basis of ecologically and evolutionarily relevant traits in Arabidopsis thaliana.

Abstract excerpt

There has been a long standing interest in the relationship between genetic and phenotypic variation in natural populations, in order to understand the genetic basis of adaptation and to discover natural alleles to improve crops. Here we review recent developments in mapping approaches that have significantly improved our ability to identify causal polymorphism explaining natural variation in ecological and...
