Evolution of Flowering Time in the Tetraploid Capsella bursa-pastoris (Brassicaceae)

Although polyploidy is believed to be a major source of evolutionary novelty, few studies have examined the genetic basis of phenotypic variation in wild polyploids. In this thesis I have studied the genetic basis of flowering time variation in the wild tetraploid crucifer Capsella bursa-pastoris, a...
