Selection through male function favors smaller floral display size in the common morning glory Ipomoea purpurea (Convolvulaceae).
In self-compatible, hermaphroditic plants, display size-the number of flowers open on a plant at one time-is believed to be influenced by trade-offs between increasing geitonogamous selfing and decreasing per-flower pollen export as display size increases. Experimental results presented here indicate that selection through male function favors smaller display sizes in Ipomoea purpurea. In small...
متن کاملExperimental evidence that selection favors character displacement in the ivyleaf morning glory.
While there is abundant evidence to suggest that pollinators influence the evolution of plant floral traits, there is little direct evidence that interactions between plant species shape the evolution of such characteristics. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the presence of the morning glory Ipomoea purpurea alters patterns of selection on floral traits of its congener, Ipomoe...
متن کاملSelection for character displacement is constrained by the genetic architecture of floral traits in the ivyleaf morning glory.
Evolutionary theory predicts that interactions between species such as resource competition or reproductive interference will generate selection for character displacement where similar species co-occur. However, the rate and direction of character displacement will depend not only on the strength of selection for trait divergence, but also on the amount of genetic variation for selected traits...
متن کاملMorning glory syndrome.
Morning glory syndrome is a congenital optic disc anomaly in which much of the excavated colobomatous optic disc is filled with glial tissue. Ocular complications may include strabismus, reduced visual acuity and retinal detachment and it may have systemic associations as in Aicardi's syndrome. A patient with monocular morning glory syndrome and reduced visual acuity is reported. The pattern re...
متن کاملPatient with Morning Glory syndrome
A 6-year-old patient was referred to our ophthalmology service because of an ocular deviation (esotropia) on the right eye for 3 years. Best-corrected visual acuity in right eye and 20/20 in left eye. According to the Krimsky test, the patient showed 15 prism dioptres esotropia in right eye. No changes were observed in biomicroscopy of both eyes and funduscopy of left eye was normal. An optical...
