A seasonal hybrid model for the evolution of flowering onset.

Abstract excerpt

In strongly seasonal environments, many plants tend to divide the favorable season into an earlier part, where they allocate resources to vegetative growth, and a later part, where they allocate resources to reproduction. The onset of flowering typically indicates the shift from one to the other. We derive and analyze a model for the evolution of flowering onset on the phenotypic level. Our model tracks a...
