Adult Sex Ratio as a Demographic Feedback Linking Mating Systems, Parental Care, and Evolution

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Breeding systems are some of the most diverse social behavior, and our team is investigation the evolutionary causes of this diversity. This review summarises our research carried out at the University of Bath. We argue that demographic components of wild populations, especially the adult sex ratio, plays a key role driving breeding system variation ...

The genetics of hard seed coat in the genus Lens

Euphytica, 1985
Seeds of the cultivated lentil are capable of germinating shortly after maturation. The seed dormancy of wild lentil species is due to a hard seed coat. In crosses between the cultivated species L. culinaris and its wild progenitor L. orientalis the hard seed coat of the wild species was controlled by a single recessive gene in homozygous condition. In

Screening Subterranean Clover for Persistent Hard Seed

Crop Science, 1988
Maintenance of hard seed through the summer is essential for reseeding of cool‐season annual clovers. ‘Mt. Barker’, Mississippi Ecotype, and 17 experimental lines of subterranean clover (Trifolium subterraneum L.) were evaluated for hard seed production and persistence over 3 yr. Initial hard seed level was measured 10 d after harvest.
