Abstract excerpt
Negative frequency-dependent selection (FDS) can increase both genetic diversity and population-level mean fitness. While the dual consequence of negative FDS has been theoretically recognized, its genomic basis remains unknown. To explore a genetic link between negative FDS and overyielding, I conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of neighbour genotypic effects on the growth of 98 Arabidopsis thaliana...
