Empty flowers as a pollination-enhancement strategy
Abstract
Question: Can the reproductive benefits gained by mitigating the costs of self-pollination drive the evolution of nectarless flowers? Features of model: Complementary analytical and simulation models determined the optimal proportion of nectarless flowers (‘nectar phenotype’) to maximize male reproductive success. Models considered a range of self-pollination costs and pollinator abundances. In the analytical model, equal numbers of each nectar...
