Two Species Whose Ranges Are Shifting Uphill Are Not Pollen Limited, But Are More Successful Selfers Than Two Non‐Shifting Species

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Many plants are shifting their ranges uphill in response to climate change. During this process, they may lose their pollinators, facing decreased reproductive success.

open access: yesSöylem Filoloji Dergisi, 2021
