Abstract The origin of the presumed allopolyploid Arabidopsis suecica has been explored through isozyme electrophoresis and mutational analysis of chloroplast (cp) DNA. Nuclear encoded isozymes are inherited biparentally and were used to indicate A. thaliana and Cardaminopsis arenosa as parental spe...
