Plant Species Biology, Volume 36, Issue 2, Page 230-245, April 2021., 2021 Hybrid zones between species with staggered reproductive phenology sometimes occur along elevational gradients, and the maintenance of such hybrid zones may depend on elevational shift in phenology and vertical dispersal of pollen and seeds. In a hybrid zone of Cerasus leveilleana and C.
