Multiple alleles at a single locus control seed dormancy in Swedish Arabidopsis

Multiple alleles at a single locus control seed dormancy in Swedish Arabidopsis

Seed dormancy is a complex life history trait that determines the timing of germination and is crucial for local adaptation. Genetic studies of dormancy are challenging, because the trait is highly plastic and strongly influenced by the maternal environment. Using a combination of statistical and ex...
