Neutral processes contribute to patterns of spatial variation for flower colour in the Mediterranean Iris lutescens (Iridaceae).

Annals of botany - 1 May 2016

Wang Hui, Talavera María, Min Ya, Flaven Elodie, Imbert Eric

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Flower colour polymorphism in plants has been used as a classic model for understanding the importance of neutral processes vs. natural selection in population differentiation. However, current explanations for the maintenance of flower colour polymorphism mainly rely on balancing selection, while neutral processes have seldom been championed. Iris lutescens (Iridaceae) is a widespread...
