Evolution of the selfing syndrome in Ipomoea [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2013
Plants that are highly selfing typically exhibit a suite of morphological traits termed a selfing syndrome, including reduced corollas and reproductive structures, loss of corolla pigmentation, little anther-stigma separation, and a lower pollen/ovule (P/

Evolution of the Selfing Syndrome in Arabis alpina (Brassicaceae). [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
The transition from cross-fertilisation (outcrossing) to self-fertilisation (selfing) frequently coincides with changes towards a floral morphology that optimises self-pollination, the selfing syndrome.

Multiple aspects of the selfing syndrome of the morning glory Ipomoea lacunosa evolved in response to selection: A Qst‐Fst comparison [PDF]

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2019
The frequent transition from outcrossing to selfing in flowering plants is often accompanied by changes in multiple aspects of floral morphology, termed the “selfing syndrome.” While the repeated evolution of these changes suggests a role for natural ...

Experimental evolution suggests rapid assembly of the ‘selfing syndrome’ from standing variation in Mimulus guttatus [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science
Ecological and evolutionary changes are likely to occur rapidly when outcrossing populations experience pollinator loss. However, the number and identify of plant traits that will respond to this form of selection, as well as the overall predictability ...

Untangling the reproductive puzzle: how floral traits, pollinator behavior, and breeding strategy shape reproductive success in the Himalayan medicinal herb Phytolacca acinosa Roxb [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science

Mating system of Datura inoxia: association between selfing rates and herkogamy within populations [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2021
Plant mating system determines, to a great extent, the demographic and genetic properties of populations, hence their potential for adaptive evolution. Variation in plant mating system has been documented between phylogenetically related species as well ...
