Abstract excerpt
Nucleotide variation in the Adh region of the wild plant Arabidopsis thaliana was analyzed in 17 ecotypes sampled worldwide to investigate DNA polymorphism in natural plant populations. The investigated 2.4-kb Adh region was divided into four blocks by intragenic recombinations between two parental sequence types that diverged 6.3 million years (Myr) ago, if the nucleotide mutation rate mu = 10(-9) is assumed....
