Parallel loss-of-function at the RPM1 bacterialresistance locus in Arabidopsis thaliana

Dimorphism at the RPM1 locus is well documented in natural populations of Arabidopsis thaliana and has been portrayed as a long-term balanced polymorphism. The haplotype from resistant plants contains the RPM1 gene, which enables these plants to recognize at least two structurally unrelated bacteria...
