Recurrent gene deletions and the evolution of adaptive cyanogenesis polymorphisms in white clover (Trifolium repens L.).
Understanding the molecular evolution of genes that underlie intraspecific polymorphisms can provide insights into the process of adaptive evolution. For adaptive polymorphisms characterized by gene presence/absence (P/A) variation, underlying loci commonly show signatures of long-term balancing selection, with gene-presence and gene-absence alleles maintained as two divergent lineages. We exam...
متن کاملIsoflavone content in red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) as related to nitrogen and phosphorus application rate
Red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) as a dietary supplement is currently used to treat menopausal symptoms because of its high concentrations of mildly estrogenic isoflavone. The application rate of N and P fertilizer has a huge influence on the isoflavone content (IC) in red clover. Trifolium pratense ‘Minshan’ is a unique plant resource in the alpine pasture region of northwest China. It plays...
متن کاملEvidence that P deficiency induces N feedback regulation of symbiotic N2 fixation in white clover (Trifolium repens L.).
Trifolium repens L. was grown to test the following hypotheses: when P is deficient (i) N2 fixation decreases as a result of the plant's adaptation to the low N demand, regulated by an N feedback mechanism, and (ii) the decrease in the photosynthetic capacity of the leaves does not limit N2 fixation. Severe P deficiency prevented nodulation or stopped nodule growth when the P deficiency occurre...
متن کاملMolecular evolution of the Li/li chemical defence polymorphism in white clover (Trifolium repens L.).
White clover (Trifolium repens) is naturally polymorphic for cyanogenesis (hydrogen cyanide release following tissue damage). The ecological factors favouring cyanogenic and acyanogenic plants have been examined in numerous studies over the last half century, making this one of the best-documented examples of an adaptive polymorphism in plants. White clover cyanogenesis is controlled by two, in...
متن کاملRapid evolution of an adaptive cyanogenesis cline in introduced North American white clover (Trifolium repens L.).
White clover is polymorphic for cyanogenesis (HCN production after tissue damage), and this herbivore defence polymorphism has served as a classic model for studying adaptive variation. The cyanogenic phenotype requires two interacting biochemical components; the presence/absence of each component is controlled by a simple Mendelian gene (Ac/ac and Li/li). Climate-associated cyanogenesis clines...
