Genome-wide association mapping in Arabidopsis identifies previously known flowering time and pathogen resistance genes.
There is currently tremendous interest in the possibility of using genome-wide association mapping to identify genes responsible for natural variation, particularly for human disease susceptibility. The model plant Arabidopsis thaliana is in many ways an ideal candidate for such studies, because it...
