    Evolution 58:2426-37. 2004
    ..Taken together, these data suggest a novel mechanism by which floral-color variation may be maintained, and illustrate the importance of an inclusive, pluralistic view of selection when investigating the evolution of complex phenotypes...

    Frank M Frey
    Department of Biology, Colgate University, 13 Oak Drive, Hamilton, NY 13346, USA
    New Phytol 175:785-91. 2007
    ..This technique enables the rigorous analysis of polysymmetric structures and provides a foundation for a better understanding of symmetry in nature...
  3. ncbi Genetic correlations with floral display lead to sexual dimorphism in the cost of reproduction
    Lynda F Delph
    Department of Biology, Indiana University, Bloomington, Indiana 47405, USA
    Am Nat 166:S31-41. 2005
    ..Our results are consistent with the hypothesis that genetic correlations between floral display and ecophysiological traits lead to a higher cost of reproduction for males...

    Lynda F Delph
    Department of Biology, Jordan Hall, 1001 East Third Street, Indiana University, Bloomington, Indiana 47405, USA
    Evolution 58:1936-46. 2004
    ..Given this trade-off and lack of variation in pollen production with flower size, we suggest that sexual dimorphism evolved via sexual selection to increase flower number in males but not females...

    ..This species can therefore increase the number of flowers produced by decreasing investment in the calyx without simultaneously decreasing petal size and the attractiveness of each individual flower to pollinators...
