Selection and Floral Evolution in Platanthera bifolia and P. chlorantha (Orchidaceae)
Natural selection mediated by pollinators has influenced the evolution of floral diversity of the flowering plants (angiosperms). The scope of this thesis was to study: 1) phenotypic selection, 2) mating systems, and 3) floral shifts involved in plant ...

Fitness-consequences of geitonogamous selfing in a clonal marine angiosperm (Zostera marina).
Plant mating systems have received considerable attention because the proportion of selfed vs. outcrossed progeny is an important evolutionary factor.

More than symbioses : orchid ecology ; with examples from the Sydney Region
The Orchidaceae are one of the largest and most diverse families of flowering plants. Orchids grow as terrestrial, lithophytic, epiphytic or climbing herbs but most orchids native to the Sydney Region can be placed in one of two categories.

Review of the Breeding Systems of Wild Roses (Rosa spp.)
The hips of wild roses (Rosa spp.) contain many healthful compounds such as vitamins and antioxidants. There is great interest in commercial cultivation but before this can occur, questions regarding plant reproduction and pollinators need to be ...

Evolution and functional significance of enantiostyly in flowering plants
Enantiostyly is a plant sexual polymorphism in which the style is deflected either to the left or to the right side of the floral axis. Although enantiostyly has been recognised since the 1800s, little is known about this polymorphism.

POLLEN CARRYOVER, GEITONOGAMY, AND THE EVOLUTION OF DECEPTIVE POLLINATION SYSTEMS IN ORCHIDS
Geitonogamy (transfer of pollen among flowers on the same plant) may lead to reduced outcrossing and interfere with sex function. Orchids with pollen packaged into pollinaria would be expected to be particularly vulnerable to the loss of cross-mating opportunities imposed by geitonogamy.
