How can interspecific pollen transfer affect the coevolution and coexistence of two closely related plant species?

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Interspecific pollen transfer (IPT), the pollen movement between plant species via shared pollinators, reduces the reproductive success of pollen‐recipient plants due to hybridization with heterospecific pollen grains. As a result, IPT hinders coexistence of sympatric, co‐flowering species by reducing their reproductive success.
