How can interspecific pollen transfer affect the coevolution and coexistence of two closely related plant species?

Oikos, EarlyView.
Interspecific pollen transfer (IPT), the pollen movement between plant species via shared pollinators, reduces the reproductive success of pollen‐recipient plants due to hybridization with heterospecific pollen grains. As a result, IPT hinders coexistence of sympatric, co‐flowering species by reducing their reproductive success.
