The evolution of plant sexual diversity.

Nature reviews. Genetics - 1 Apr 2002

Barrett Spencer C H

Abstract excerpt

Charles Darwin recognized that flowering plants have an unrivalled diversity of sexual systems. Determining the ecological and genetic factors that govern sexual diversification in plants is today a central problem in evolutionary biology. The integration of phylogenetic, ecological and population-genetic studies have provided new insights into the selective mechanisms that are responsible for major evolutionary...
