Darwin recognized the flower’s importance for the study of adaptation and emphasized that the flower’s functionality reflects the coordinated action of multiple traits. Here we use a multi-trait manip
Using pollination-syndrome parameters and pollinator correlations with floral phenotype from the neotropics, we predicted that Dalechampia bidentata Blume (Euphorbiaceae) in southern China would be po
In the formation of species, adaptation by natural selection generates distinct combinations of traits that function well together. The maintenance of adaptive trait combinations in the face of gene f
Our understanding of the pollination ecology of Timonius (a dioecious genus) is limited to deducing their pollination syndrome based on floral traits. Through a series of field surveys on several popu
