The genetic basis of a rare flower color polymorphism in Mimulus lewisii provides insight into the repeatability of evolution.
A long-standing question in evolutionary biology asks whether the genetic changes contributing to phenotypic evolution are predictable. Here, we identify a genetic change associated with segregating variation in flower color within a population of Mimulus lewisii. To determine whether these types of...
