Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) correlate genetic polymorphisms with trait variation and have already identified causative variants for various traits in many different organisms, from humans to plants. Importantly, many adaptive traits, like the regulation of flowering time in plants, are not regulated by distinct genetic effects, but by more sophisticated gene regulatory networks.}, language = {de} } @article{DrenckhahnBaumgartnerZonneveld2017, author = {Drenckhahn, Detlev and Baumgartner, Werner and Zonneveld, Ben}, title = {Different genome sizes of Western and Eastern Ficaria verna lineages shed light on steps of Ficaria evolution}, series = {Forum Geobotanicum}, volume = {7}, journal = {Forum Geobotanicum}, issn = {1867-9315}, doi = {10.3264/FG.2017.1122}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-155061}, pages = {27-33}, year = {2017}, abstract = {The genus Ficaria is now considered to comprize eight Eurasian species. The most widespread European species is the tetraploid F. verna Huds. The present study provides evidence for the existence of two main lineages of F. verna that differ considerably in their genomic size by about 3 pg. A Western F. verna lineage west of river Rhine displays a mean genome size (2C-value) of 34.2 pg and is almost precisely codistributed with the diploid F. ambigua Boreau (20 pg) north of the Mediterranean. The remaining part of Europe appears to be occupied by the Eastern F. verna lineage solely (mean genome size of 31.3 pg) which codistributes in South-Eastern Europe with the diploid F. calthifolia Rchb. (15 pg). There is little overlap at the boundary of Western and Eastern F. verna lineages with the occurrence of a separate intermediate group in the Netherlands (mean genomic size of 33.2 pg) that appears to result from hybridization of both lineages. On the basis of these observations and further considerations we propose development of F. ambigua and F. calthifolia south of the Alps with subsequent divergence to populate their current Western and Eastern European ranges, respectively. The Western F. verna lineage is proposed to originate from autotetraploidization of F. ambigua (precursor) with moderate genomic downsizing and the Eastern F. verna lineage from auto¬tetraploidization of F. calthifolia (precursor).}, subject = {Durchflusscytometrie}, language = {en} }
