The New Is Old: Novel Germination Strategy Evolved From Standing Genetic Variation in Weedy Rice

Feralization of crop plants has aroused an increasing interest in recent years, not only for the reduced yield and quality of crop production caused by feral plants but also for the rapid evolution of novel traits that facilitate the evolution and persistence of weedy forms. Weedy rice (Oryza sativa...
