Alexander Varshavsky discovered, the half-lives of many cytoplasmic proteins vary with the identities of their N-terminal residues via the so-called N-end rule:-
|
A. Destabilizing N-terminal residues Asp, Arg, Leu, Lys, and Phe have half-lives of |
i. Only 2 to 3 minutes, |
|
B. Stabilizing N-terminal residues Ala, Gly, Met, Ser, Thr, and Val have half-lives of |
ii. >10 hours in prokaryotes iii. >20 hours in eukaryotes. |

The herbaceous plant Achillea lanulosa is widespread in the Northern Hemisphere. Phenotypic variation in the species has been extensively studied along an altitudinal gradient from sea level to over 3,000 meters. In California there is conspicuous variation in height; alpine plants are only several centimeters tall while those in the San Joaquin Valley may reach a height of 1.8 meters. Adaptation to different local environments also results in variation in physiological processes such as photosynthetic rate, resistance to cold, and the timing of dormancy.
Which of the following methods would be best to determine whether the phenotypic variation in Achillea lanulosa is due to genotypic variation?
