Reaction norm functions and QTL-environment interactions for flowering time in Arabidopsis thaliana.

Heredity - 1 Aug 1998

Stratton D A

Abstract excerpt

Many plant traits are phenotypically plastic in response to resource levels that vary continuously among environments. To be able to predict phenotypes in new environments, it is useful to model reaction norms as functions, rather than as a collection of discrete character states. Flowering date...
