Cryptic Variation in Adaptive Phenotypes Revealed by Panspecific flc Mutants

Ulrich C. Lutz, Ilja Bezrukov, Rebecca Schwab…·Detlef Weigel

The paper investigates how genetic background modulates the effects of FLC mutants on flowering and other traits in Arabidopsis thaliana, revealing cryptic variation and pleiotropy.

Selection constraints of plant adaptation can be relaxed by gene editing

Megan Ruffley, Ulrich C. Lutz, Laura Leventhal…·Moisés Expósito‐Alonso

This study shows that gene editing can relax selection constraints on plant traits by altering genetic correlations between flowering time and water use efficiency in Arabidopsis thaliana.
