Abstract excerpt
The role of variable pollination environments in maintaining mixed mating systems is an active area of research. Dimorphic cleistogamy, in which a plant reproduces by both open, facultative outcrossing chasmogamous (CH) flowers and closed, cleistogamous (CL) flowers presents an excellent opportunity to study mixed mating. For example, plastic responses in allocation to an optimal floral type could serve as an...
