Occurrence and Prevention of Delayed Autonomous Selfing in Salvia umbratica (Lamiaceae)
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Delayed autonomous selfing (DAS) provides reproductive assurance under conditions of pollinator and/or pollen-limitation. Few plant species have been investigated to determine if DAS is terminated when a flower is sufficiently pollinated by a pollen ...

Diet alters delayed selfing, inbreeding depression, and reproductive senescence in a freshwater snail. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2014 Reproductive success is a critical fitness attribute that is directly influenced by resource availability. Here, we investigate the effects of diet-based resource availability on three interrelated aspects of reproductive success: a change in mating ...

Pollinator scarcity drives the shift to delayed selfing in Himalayan mayapple Podophyllum hexandrum (Berberidaceae) [PDF]
AoB Plants, 2013 American mayapple and Himalayan mayapple are a pair of sister species with disjunct distribution between eastern Asia and eastern North America, which the former was considered to be self-incompatible but the later to be self-compatible.

The best of both worlds? A review of delayed selfing in flowering plants [PDF]
American-Eurasian journal of botany, 2018 PREMISE OF STUDY: In a seminal body of theory, Lloyd showed that the fitness consequences of selfing will depend on its timing in anthesis. Selfing that occurs after opportunities for outcrossing or pollen dispersal can provide reproductive assurance ...

Journal of Pollination Ecology, 2018 Delayed autonomous selfing offers a mechanism for seed production when pollination levels are low or unpredictable. At Mpala Research Centre (MRC) in Kenya, we examined the relationships between floral attraction, insect visitation, and delayed ...

Stamens enclosed by petals in Berchemia (Rhamnaceae): a unique mechanism for pollen presentation [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant ScienceIntroductionPollen is usually presented by the anthers after maturity. However, in some plants, pollen is presented to pollinators on other floral structures (other than the anthers), or via particular expulsion mechanisms, resulting in secondary pollen ...
