Abstract excerpt
Plants harbor remarkable genetic diversity in flowering phenology, particularly in their responses to environmental cues such as photoperiod. Understanding the genetic basis of repeated evolution in flowering cues, which are key to reproduction, illuminates adaptation with gene flow and parallel evolution. We characterized variation in minimum critical daylength for flowering (MCD) in yellow monkeyflower (Mimulus...
