Convergent changes in gene expression associated with repeated transitions between hummingbird and bee pollinated flowers

2019-07-17

Abstract excerpt

The repeated evolution of convergent floral shapes and colors in angiosperms has been largely interpreted as the response to pollinator-mediated selection to maximize attraction and efficiency of specific groups of pollinators. The genetic mechanisms contributing to certain flower traits have been studied in detail for model system species, but the extent by which flowers are free to vary and how predictable are t...
