Frequency, Origins, and Evolutionary Role of Chromosomal Inversions in Plants

Chromosomal inversions have the potential to play an important role in evolution by reducing recombination between favorable combinations of alleles. Until recently, however, most evidence for their likely importance derived from dipteran flies, whose giant larval salivary chromosomes aided early cy...
