The limits on sexual dimorphism in vegetative traits in a gynodioecious plant.

The American naturalist - 1 Oct 2005

Ashman Tia-Lynn

Abstract excerpt

Gynodioecious plants exhibit modest sexual dimorphism in vegetative and phenological traits, which stands in stark contrast to pronounced dimorphism in reproductive traits. I evaluate the roles of limited genetic variation, negative genetic covariation (within and between sex morphs), and lack of gender-differential selection in contributing to minimal sexual dimorphism for these traits in Fragaria virginiana....
