VvTFL1A overexpression due to transposon insertion in its promoter region causes delayed<br />

flowering <strong>and</strong> production of a ramose cluster in the ‘Carignan’ RRM somatic variant (Fern<strong>and</strong>ez<br />

et al. 2010). In order to analyze the possible contribution of this gene to cluster phenotypic<br />

variation in cultivated grapevine (Vitis vinifera L. subsp. sativa), we have characterized its<br />

nucleotide diversity <strong>and</strong> performed association analyses among detected sequence<br />

polymorphisms <strong>and</strong> VvTFL1A expression <strong>and</strong> cluster traits. We sequenced a total of 3489 bp of<br />

the VvTFL1A gene (corresponding to 2177 bp of promoter <strong>and</strong> 1312 bp of coding sequence) in a<br />

core collection designed to maximize phenotypic variation at 50 agromically relevant traits<br />

(Barnaud et al. 2006). Nucleotide polymorphisms were highly abundant in the promoter <strong>and</strong><br />

intron sequences of the gene <strong>and</strong> some of them revealed significant associations (P
