Viability selection at three early life stages of the tropical tree, Platypodium elegans (Fabaceae, Papilionoideae).

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Mar 2003

Hufford Kristina M, Hamrick J L

Abstract excerpt

Given the enormous number and high mortality of fertilized ovules in plants, it is possible that selection during the earliest stages of the life cycle plays an important role in shaping the genetic composition of plant populations. Previous research involving selection component analyses found strong evidence for viability selection in annual plant species. Yet despite this evidence, few attempts have been made...
