“…Flowering time is a model trait for understanding the genetics of clinal adaptation (Mouradov, Cremer, & Coupland, 2002;Pineiro & Coupland, 1998;Weller & Ortega, 2015), and the evolution of clines Caicedo, Stinchcombe, Olsen, Schmitt, & Purugganan, 2004;Samis, Heath, & Stinchcombe, 2008;Stinchcombe et al, 2004) and invaded range (Samis et al, 2012). In the model legume, Medicago truncatula, a dozen genes from several pathways involved in floral development are associated with clinal variation in flowering time (Burgarella et al, 2016).…”
