Candidate Gene Association Mapping of Arabidopsis Flowering Time
GENETICS, 183(1), 325–335.
MeSH headings : Arabidopsis / genetics; Arabidopsis / growth & development; Chromosome Mapping; Crosses, Genetic; Flowers / genetics; Gene Expression Regulation, Developmental; Gene Expression Regulation, Plant; Gene Regulatory Networks; Genes, Plant / physiology; Genetic Linkage; Genotype; Polymorphism, Single Nucleotide; Time Factors
TL;DR:
Using structured association techniques, it is found that haplotype-tagging SNPs in 27 flowering time genes show significant associations in various trait/environment combinations, and it is conservatively estimated that ∼4–14% of known floweringTime genes may harbor common alleles that contribute to natural variation in this life history trait.

The cost of inbreeding in Arabidopsis

MeSH headings : Amino Acid Substitution; Animals; Arabidopsis / genetics; Arabidopsis / physiology; Biological Evolution; Drosophila / genetics; Genes, Plant; Inbreeding; Models, Genetic; Polymorphism, Genetic; Selection, Genetic
TL;DR:
In a comparison of amino-acid replacements amongspecies of the mustard weed Arabidopsis with those among species of the fruitfly Drosophila, it is found that there is evidence for predominantly beneficial gene substitutions but predominantly detrimental substitutions inArabidopsis, corroborating a prediction of population genetics theory that species with a high frequency of inbreeding are less efficient in eliminating deleterious mutations.

The MADS-box floral homeotic gene lineages predate the origin of seed plants: Phylogenetic and molecular clock estimates
JOURNAL OF MOLECULAR EVOLUTION, 45(4), 392–396.
author keywords: floral homeotic genes; flowers; development; evolution; MADS-box
MeSH headings : Arabidopsis / genetics; Arabidopsis / growth & development; Evolution, Molecular; Genes, Homeobox; Genes, Plant; Phylogeny; Plant Development; Plants / genetics; Species Specificity; Time Factors
TL;DR:
The evolutionary history of these developmental genes was reconstructed using 74 loci from 15 dicot, three monocot, and one conifer species to suggest that the different floral homeotic gene lineages began to diverge from one another about 450–500 mya, around the time of the origin of land plants themselves.
