Exploiting Arabidopsis Natural Variation
Abstract
Maarten Koornneef, Honorary Professor at the Max Planck Institute for Plant Breeding Research and contributing author of the Annual Review of Plant Biology, gives a talk titled "Exploiting Arabidopsis Natural Variation." In this lecture, he discusses natural variation as a way to understand the genetics of adaptation and adaptation as a tool for genetics, the complexity of quantitative traits in Arabidopsis, and the advantages and disadvantages of Genome-Wide Association Mapping and Biparental Rils. This presentation was recorded in October 2012 at the Trends and Advances in Plant Biology Symposium, Zurich-Basel Plant Science Center.
