May 17, 2011 u vol. 108 u no. 20 u 8067–8526 Cover image: Pictured is a modern version of the Borromean rings, a topological arrange- ment of three interlocked symmetric rings that owes its name to the Borromeo family of Italy on whose coat of arms the rings appear. Although the three rings cannot be pulled apart, no two of them are linked—a fact that becomes apparent when one of the rings is hidden from view. Jim Conant, Rob Schneiderman, and Peter Teichner derived this particular realization of the link from their theory of Whitney towers, where it represents the Jacobi identity, or IHX-relation. See the article by Conant et al. on pages 8131–8138, which is part of the Special Feature on Low Dimensional Geometry and Topology. Image courtesy of Jim Conant, Rob Schneiderman, and Peter Teichner.

Natural Variation in Autumn Expression Is the Major Adaptive
RESEARCH ARTICLE Natural variation in autumn expression is the major adaptive determinant distinguishing Arabidopsis FLC haplotypes Jo Hepworth1, Rea L Antoniou-Kourounioti2, Kristina Berggren3, Catja Selga4, Eleri H Tudor5, Bryony Yates1, Deborah Cox1, Barley Rose Collier Harris1, Judith A Irwin5, Martin Howard2, Torbjo¨ rn Sa¨ ll4, Svante Holm3*, Caroline Dean1* 1Cell and Developmental Biology, John Innes Centre, Norwich, United Kingdom; 2Computational and Systems Biology, John Innes Centre, Norwich, United Kingdom; 3Department of Natural Sciences, Mid Sweden University, Sundsvall, Sweden; 4Department of Biology, Lund University, Lund, Sweden; 5Crop Genetics, John Innes Centre, Norwich, United Kingdom Abstract In Arabidopsis thaliana, winter is registered during vernalization through the temperature-dependent repression and epigenetic silencing of floral repressor FLOWERING LOCUS C (FLC). Natural Arabidopsis accessions show considerable variation in vernalization. However, which aspect of the FLC repression mechanism is most important for adaptation to different environments is unclear. By analysing FLC dynamics in natural variants and mutants throughout winter in three field sites, we find that autumnal FLC expression, rather than epigenetic silencing, is the major variable conferred by the distinct Arabidopsis FLChaplotypes. This variation influences flowering responses of Arabidopsis accessions resulting in an interplay between *For correspondence: promotion and delay of flowering in different climates to balance survival and, through a post- [email protected] (SH); vernalization effect, reproductive output. These data reveal how expression variation through non- [email protected] (CD) coding cis variation at FLC has enabled Arabidopsis accessions to adapt to different climatic conditions and year-on-year fluctuations.

An Arabidopsis Example of Association Mapping in Structured Samples
An Arabidopsis Example of Association Mapping in Structured Samples Keyan Zhao1, Marı´a Jose´ Aranzana1, Sung Kim1, Clare Lister2, Chikako Shindo2, Chunlao Tang1, Christopher Toomajian1, Honggang Zheng1, Caroline Dean2, Paul Marjoram3, Magnus Nordborg1* 1 Molecular and Computational Biology, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, California, United States of America, 2 Department of Cell and Developmental Biology, John Innes Centre, Norwich, United Kingdom, 3 Department of Preventive Medicine, Keck School of Medicine, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, California, United States of America A potentially serious disadvantage of association mapping is the fact that marker-trait associations may arise from confounding population structure as well as from linkage to causative polymorphisms. Using genome-wide marker data, we have previously demonstrated that the problem can be severe in a global sample of 95 Arabidopsis thaliana accessions, and that established methods for controlling for population structure are generally insufficient. Here, we use the same sample together with a number of flowering-related phenotypes and data-perturbation simulations to evaluate a wider range of methods for controlling for population structure. We find that, in terms of reducing the false- positive rate while maintaining statistical power, a recently introduced mixed-model approach that takes genome- wide differences in relatedness into account via estimated pairwise kinship coefficients generally performs best. By combining the association results with results from linkage mapping in F2 crosses, we identify one previously known true positive and several promising new associations, but also demonstrate the existence of both false positives and false negatives. Our results illustrate the potential of genome-wide association scans as a tool for dissecting the genetics of natural variation, while at the same time highlighting the pitfalls.
