Plant height is an important trait for plant reproductive success. Plant height is often under
pollinator‐mediated selection, and has been shown to be correlated with various other traits.
However, few studies have examined the evolutionary trajectory of plant height under
selection and the pleiotropic effects of plant height evolution. We conducted a bi‐directional
artificial selection experiment on plant height with fast cycling Brassica rapa plants to
estimate its heritability and genetic correlations, and to reveal evolutionary responses to …
