Identifying the genes responsible for discrete as well as quantitative differences requires an understanding of the phenotypic and genetic diversity found among species. As opposed to gene cloning based on laboratory‐induced mutations, genes discovered through natural variation provide insight into the genetic mechanisms that drive evolutionary change of complex traits.Read More
