Abstract excerpt
To gain an understanding of the genetic basis of adaptation, we conducted quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping for flowering time variation between two winter annual populations of Arabidopsis thaliana that are locally adapted and display distinct flowering times. QTL mapping was performed with large (n = 384) F(2) populations with and without vernalization, in order to reveal both the genetic basis of a...
