Quantifying the role of genome size and repeat content in adaptive variation and the architecture of flowering time in Amaranthus tuberculatus.

Genome size remains a marginally significant explanatory variable (χ 2 = 3.24, p = 0.071) explaining 2% of the variation in flowering time but is considerably less important compared to copy number variation at the ATP synthesis locus (partial r 2 = 11%, χ 2 = 21.16, p = 9.6 x 10 −6 ), which in turn is less important than PGV FT (partial r 2 = 40%, χ 2 = 127.15, p < 10 −15 ) ( Fig 4C ) .
