| experimental life-history evolution: selection on the allocation to sexual reproduction and its plasticity in a clonal plant. | allocation to sexual reproduction is an important life-history trait in clonal plants. different selection pressures between competitive and competition-free environments are likely to result in the evolution of specialized genotypes and to maintain genetic variation in reproductive allocation. moreover, selection may also result in the evolution of plastic allocation strategies. the necessary prerequisite for evolution, heritable genetic variation, can best be studied with selection experiments ... | 2002 | 12487347 |
