Genomic heterozygosity is associated with parasite abundance, but the effects are not mediated by host condition
Whether, when, and how genetic diversity buffers individuals and populations against infectious disease risk is a critical and open question for...

Extensive sequence duplication in Arabidopsis revealed by pseudo-heterozygosity
BackgroundIt is apparent that genomes harbor much structural variation that is largely undetected for technical reasons. Such variation can cause...
