Low genetic variation is associated with low mutation rate in the giant duckweed

While the role of effective population size (N e) in explaining variation in genetic diversity has received much attention, the role of spontaneous mutation rate is largely ignored. Here, Xu et al. show that giant duckweed has a high N e yet low genetic diversity, likely due to its low mutation rate...
