Does Inbreeding Affect Tolerance to Inflorescence Damage in Mimulus guttatus?
Inbreeding in plants causes various declines in fitness estimates across many species and may also affect adaptive phenotypic plasticity, as observed in tolerance to herbivory. Although there are a growing number of studies looking at this effect, there are still not enough to make general conclusions about the relationship between homozygosity and tolerance or resistance. In this work, we exam...
متن کاملEffects of Inbreeding in Mimulus Guttatus on Tolerance to Herbivory in Natural Environments
Inbreeding, which is common in plants, may increase the vulnerability of populations to natural enemies. Similarly, natural enemies may increase the expression of inbreeding depression in their hosts, resulting in altered selection on host mating-system evolution. To examine effects of inbreeding on tolerance to herbivory, we transplanted experimentally selfand cross-fertilized plants into four...
متن کاملDefective copper transport in the copt5 mutant affects cadmium tolerance.
Cadmium toxicity interferes with essential metal homeostasis, which is a problem for both plant nutrition and the consumption of healthy food by humans. Copper uptake is performed by the members of the Arabidopsis high affinity copper transporter (COPT) family. One of the members, COPT5, is involved in copper recycling from the vacuole toward the cytosolic compartment. We show herein that copt5...

متن کاملSpeciation and Introgression between Mimulus nasutus and Mimulus guttatus
Mimulus guttatus and M. nasutus are an evolutionary and ecological model sister species pair differentiated by ecology, mating system, and partial reproductive isolation. Despite extensive research on this system, the history of divergence and differentiation in this sister pair is unclear. We present and analyze a population genomic data set which shows that M. nasutus budded from a central Ca...
