Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation Genetic differentiation is structured with substantial variation both within and between chromosomes in Mimulus guttatus.
- Observation Known inversion polymorphisms appear to play only minor roles in the heterogeneity of genetic differentiation in Mimulus guttatus.
- Observation Much of the genome of Mimulus guttatus can be clustered into eight among-population genetic differentiation patterns.
- Association Genotype-environment association identified genomic intervals where local adaptation to specific climate factors has accentuated genetic differentiation among populations of Mimulus guttatus.
- Mechanism Candidate genes in these windows indicate that climate adaptation may proceed through changes affecting specialized metabolism, drought resistance, and development.
- Observation Multiple aspects of plant reproductive biology may be common targets of balancing selection in Mimulus guttatus.
- Mechanism Variants historically involved in climate adaptation have probably also fuelled rapid adaptation to microgeographic environmental variation within sites in Mimulus guttatus.
