Intraspecific diversification in North American Boechera stricta (= Arabis drummondii), Boechera ×divaricarpa, and Boechera holboellii (Brassicaceae) inferred from nuclear and chloroplast molecular markers—an integrative approach [PDF]
American Journal of Botany, 2004 We performed a combined evolutionary analysis of North American Boechera stricta, Boechera holboellii, and their hybrid Boechera ×divaricarpa using information on ploidy level estimators, allelic microsatellite variation, noncoding regions of the plastidic genome (cpDNA), and sequences of the internal transcribed spacers 1 and 2 of the nuclear ...

Variation and fitness costs for tolerance to different types of herbivore damage in Boechera stricta genotypes with contrasting glucosinolate structures. [PDF]
New Phytol, 2010 • Analyses of plant tolerance in response to different modes of herbivory are essential to an understanding of plant defense evolution, yet are still scarce. Allocation costs and trade-offs between tolerance and plant chemical defenses may influence genetic variation for tolerance.

Complex trait divergence contributes to environmental niche differentiation in ecological speciation of Boechera stricta. [PDF]
Mol Ecol, 2013 AbstractEcological factors may contribute to reproductive isolation if differential local adaptation causes immigrant or hybrid fitness reduction. Because local adaptation results from the interaction between natural selection and adaptive traits, it is crucial to investigate both to understand ecological speciation. Previously, we used niche modelling

Variation in circadian rhythms is maintained among and within populations in Boechera stricta [PDF]
Plant, Cell & Environment, 2016 AbstractCircadian clocks have evolved independently in all three domains of life, and fitness benefits of a functional clock have been demonstrated in experimental genotypes in controlled conditions. Still, little is known about genetic variation in the clock and its fitness consequences in natural populations from heterogeneous environments.

Identification of quantitative trait loci and a candidate locus for freezing tolerance in controlled and outdoor environments in the overwintering crucifer Boechera stricta. [PDF]
Plant Cell Environ, 2014 AbstractDevelopment of chilling and freezing tolerance is complex and can be affected by photoperiod, temperature and photosynthetic performance; however, there has been limited research on the interaction of these three factors. We evaluated 108 recombinant inbred lines of Boechera stricta, derived from a cross between lines originating from Montana ...

Partial Shotgun Sequencing of the Boechera stricta Genome Reveals Extensive Microsynteny and Promoter Conservation with Arabidopsis [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 2006 Abstract Comparative genomics provides insight into the evolutionary dynamics that shape discrete sequences as well as whole genomes. To advance comparative genomics within the Brassicaceae, we have end sequenced 23,136 medium-sized insert clones from Boechera stricta, a wild relative of Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana).

Microbiome-Mediated Resistance of Wild Tomato to the Invasive Insect Prodiplosis longifila. [PDF]
Environ Microbiol RepSoil microbiome‐mediated resistance to Prodiplosis longifila in wild tomato. Wild tomato Solanum pimpinellifolium exhibited reduced leaf damage from P. longifila when gronw in live soil compared to sterilized soil. Sterilization disrupted root‐associated microbiome, particularly reduced the abundance of Actinoplanes, which is linked to biosynthetic ...
