Floral signals evolve in a predictable way under artificial and pollinator selection in Brassica rapa.

BMC evolutionary biology - 24 Sept 2020

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Angiosperms employ an astonishing variety of visual and olfactory floral signals that are generally thought to evolve under natural selection. Those morphological and chemical traits can form highly correlated sets of traits. It is not always clear which of these are used by pollinators as primary targets of selection and which would be indirectly selected by being linked to those primary targets....
