Latitudinal adaptation and dispersal pathway of foxtail millet suggested by geographical distribution of transposable elements inserted in the SiPRR37 gene.

Abstract excerpt

We investigated the variation and geographical distribution of the Pseudo-regulator response 37 (Setaria italica PRR37; SiPRR37) gene, which is involved in heading time (photoperiodism) in foxtail millet. An allele of the SiPRR37 gene, in which an approximately 4.9-kb transposable element (designated TE1) is inserted (a loss-of-function or reduction-of-function type), is distributed sporadically in East Asia and...
