Beyond cyanogenesis: Temperature gradients drive environmental adaptation in North American white clover (Trifolium repens L.)
Species that repeatedly evolve phenotypic clines across environmental gradients have been
highlighted as ideal systems for characterizing the genomic basis of local environmental …

Tissue-specific expression of HCN and its metabolic precursors in Trifolium repens
Cyanogenesis, the release of hydrogen cyanide (HCN), is governed by two loci, Ac and Li,
in white clover (Trifolium repens L.). Ac encodes a three gene region that regulates …
