Pleiotropic effects of an allele producing white flowers in Ipomoea purpurea.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 May 2008

Coberly L Caitlin, Rausher Mark D

Abstract excerpt

Although it is generally believed that pollinators are the primary selective agents driving flower-color evolution, it has recently been suggested that pleiotropic effects of mutations affecting flower color may serve as important constraints on floral evolution. We examined this hypothesis using white-flowered variants of the common morning glory, Ipomoea purpurea. Previous experiments indicate that the...
