Journal ArticleDOI

Transmission ratio distortion is frequent in Arabidopsis thaliana controlled crosses

TL;DR: This work performed a species-wide screen for TRD in over 500 segregating F2 populations of Arabidopsis thaliana using pooled reduced-representation genome sequencing, and found that TRD was evident in up to a quarter of surveyed populations.
Journal ArticleDOI

What natural variation can teach us about resistance durability.

TL;DR: Current knowledge of wild and agricultural pathosystems is reviewed, detailing the importance of genetic, species and spatial heterogeneity in the prevention of pathogen outbreaks and challenges associated with increasing resistance diversity in crops, both in light of pathogenic (co-)evolution and breeding practices.
Journal ArticleDOI

Natural Variation of Molecular and Morphological Gibberellin Responses

TL;DR: It is found that natural accessions of Arabidopsis vary greatly in their ability to buffer the effects of overexpression of GA20ox1, encoding a rate-limiting enzyme for gibberellin biosynthesis, with substantial differences in bioactive gibb Berellin concentrations as well as transcriptomes and growth trajectories.
Journal ArticleDOI

The genetic architecture and population genomic signatures of glyphosate resistance in Amaranthus tuberculatus.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors implemented genome-wide association (GWA) and population genomic approaches to examine the genetic architecture of glyphosate (Round-up) resistance in the problematic agricultural weed Amaranthus tuberculatus.
