Remarkable life history polymorphism may be evolving under divergent selection in the silverleaf sunflower.

Molecular ecology - 1 Aug 2016

Moyers Brook T, Rieseberg Loren H

Abstract excerpt

Substantial intraspecific variation in life history is rare and potentially a signal of incipient ecological speciation, if variation is driven by geographically heterogenous natural selection. We present the first report of extensive life history polymorphism in Helianthus argophyllus, the silverleaf sunflower, and examine evidence for its evolution by divergent selection. In 18 populations sampled from across...
