Approximately two decades after the first pioneering analyses, the study of shape asymmetry
with the methods of geometric morphometrics has matured and is a burgeoning field. New …

Despite long-standing interest in local adaptation of plants to their biotic and abiotic
environment, existing theory, and many case studies, little work to date has addressed within …

Pollinator-driven diversification is thought to be a major source of floral variation in plants.
Our knowledge of this process is, however, limited to indirect assessments of evolutionary …

Pollen limitation may be a consequence of changes in pollinator abundance, diversity and
identity. However, no empirical evidence exists concerning the consequences that the …

Perianth bilateral symmetry (zygomorphy) has evolved repeatedly from radial symmetry
(actinomorphy) throughout angiosperms. Zygomorphy has previously been linked with plant …

Floral colour mediates plant–pollinator interactions by often signalling floral resources. In
this sense, hummingbird‐pollinated flowers are frequently red‐coloured, and there are two …

Pollen‐mediated gene flow from ecological core populations may hamper the ability of
populations to invade new, closely adjacent habitats. The potential for the invasion of a new …

Through their preferences for floral cues, pollinators and herbivores can mediate selection
on a variety of plant traits. Selection by mutualists and antagonists may not be independent …

Climate change is affecting both the timing of life history events and the spatial distributions
of many species, including plants and pollinators. Shifts in phenology and range affect not …

Morphospaces are mathematical representations used for studying the evolution of
morphological diversity and for the evaluation of evolved shapes among theoretically …
