Anales del Jardín Botánico de Madrid, 2022 The breeding system of Anacyclus linearilobus, an annual and endemic species restricted to dune ecosystems of the Algerian coast were assessed through the effect of self-fertilization and intra- and inter-population artificial crosses on the probability

The relative importance of reproductive assurance and automatic selection as hypotheses for the evolution of self-fertilization. [PDF]
Ann Bot, 2012 The field of plant mating-system evolution has long been interested in understanding why selfing evolves from outcrossing. Many possible mechanisms drive this evolutionary trend, but most research has focused upon the transmission advantage of selfing ...

Baker's Law Revisited: Reproductive Assurance in a Metapopulation [PDF]
Evolution, 1998 Baker's Law states that it is more likely for self-compatible than for self-incompatible individuals to establish sexually reproducing colonies after long-distance dispersal, because only the former can do so with a single individual. This hypothesis, proposed by H. G.

The mixed mating system of a widespread weed: the case of Argemone ochroleuca Sweet (Papaveraceae)
Botanical Sciences, 2022 Background: Argemone ochroleuca is a worldwide invasive weed but is also highly valuable for their chemical compounds. Knowledge about its reproduction will help create plans for its control or its propagation. Questions: Does A.

Living in the shadows: Gastrodia orchids lack functional leaves and open flowers
Plants, People, Planet, 2022 Non‐photosynthetic plants dependent on fungi have long fascinated botanists and mycologists. The genus Gastrodia (Orchidaceae) contains more than 100 achlorophyllous species, including some species recently discovered in Japan and Taiwan which produce ...

Geographic variation in reproductive assurance of Clarkia pulchella [PDF]
Oecologia, 2018 Abstract Climate can affect plant populations through direct effects on physiology and fitness, and through indirect effects on their relationships with pollinating mutualists. We therefore expect that geographic variation in climate might lead to variation in plant mating systems.

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Outcrossing plant species are more likely to exhibit autonomous selfing in marginal habitats to ensure reproduction under conditions of limited pollinator and/or mate availability.

Biology, 2021 Nectar robbers, which affect plant fitness (directly or indirectly) in different degrees and in different ways, potentially constitute a significant part of mutualistic relationships.
