Abstract excerpt
Chromosomal inversions have been implicated in a remarkable range of natural phenomena, but it remains unclear how much they contribute to standing genetic variation. Here, we evaluate 64 inversions that segregate within a single natural population of the yellow monkeyflower (Mimulus guttatus). Nucleotide diversity patterns confirm low internal variation for the derived orientation (predicted by recent origin),...
