Mating strategies in flowering plants are governed by several classes of floral adaptations.
Floral design and display primarily influence the quantity and quality of pollen dispersed …

Flowering plants are able to develop gametes throughout their lives. As a consequence,
environmental conditions can impact this development and alter a plant's functional gender …

Six endemic genera/sections of lobeliads (Campanulaceae) occupy nearly the full range of
light regimes on moist sites in the Hawaiian Islands, from open alpine bogs and seacliffs to …

The tendency for island populations to differ in body size from their mainland relatives has
been well documented, but the mechanisms for these size changes remain speculative …

We report on a phylogenetic analysis of correlations between the occurrence of dioecy and
several ecological and life‐history attributes: tropical distribution, woody growth form, abiotic …

The Hawaiian flora, because of its great isolation, high levels of endemism, known lineages,
and high rates of endangerment, offers unique opportunities to explore patterns of …

Phylogenetic relationships in the Olea europaea complex and the phylogeography of 24
populations of the Macaronesian olive (O. europaea ssp. cerasiformis) were assessed by …

Floral key innovations play a significant role in the discussion of adaptive radiation in plants.
The paper brings together a brief review of morphological key innovations in plants …

The Hawaiian endemic mints constitute a major island radiation, displaying a remarkable
diversity of floral, fruit, and vegetative features. Haplostachys and Phyllostegia have flowers …

A survey of the reproductive features of the angiosperm flora of the Juan Fernández
Archipelago (Chile) is presented to provide a species-based review of reproduction and …
