Genome-wide association mapping of growth dynamics detects time-specific and general quantitative trait loci.

Abstract excerpt

Growth is a complex trait determined by the interplay between many genes, some of which play a role at a specific moment during development whereas others play a more general role. To identify the genetic basis of growth, natural variation in Arabidopsis rosette growth was followed in 324 accessions by a combination of top-view imaging, high-throughput image analysis, modelling of growth dynamics, and end-point...
