Abstract excerpt
Although the 6 magnitude and pattern of correlation among floral traits (phenotypic integration) is usually conceived as an adaptation for successful pollination and reproduction, studies on the evolution of plant reproductive systems have generally focused on one or a few characters. If evolutionary transitions between reproductive systems involve morphological floral adjustments, changes in the magnitude and...
