Title

The evolution and maintenance of gender dimorphism in New Zealand Hebe (Scrophulariaceae).

Delph, Lynda F. University of Canterbury Research Repository (University of Canterbury) 1988. doi:10.26021/8529

Other claims from this paper (18)

Observation The authors postulated four separate origins of gender dimorphism in Hebe.
Observation Nuclear genes partly control gender in one Hebe species.
Observation Most Hebe species are self-compatible.
Observation H. subalpina exhibited inbreeding depression.
Association Female frequency declined with fruit set on the polleniferous morph.
Association Gender dimorphism correlated with altitude.
Mechanism The authors hypothesized that higher-altitude self-pollination favored separate sexes.
Observation Female frequency varied greatly among H. strictissima populations.
Association In H. strictissima, female frequency declined as relative male seed fitness rose.
Association Male fruit set varied strongly with plant vigour within and among plants and populations.
Association Female fruit set was not correlated with plant vigour.
Observation Female fruit set varied less among populations.
Association Female plants were more prevalent at poor sites with low male seed fitness.
Observation Male H. subalpina received less than four per cent of fitness through ovules.
Observation H. subalpina was near the dioecy end of gynodioecy.
Observation Male fruit set varied more than female fruit set.
Association Male fruit set depended on shoot status and plant genotype.
Mechanism The authors interpreted sex-specific resource allocation as reflecting fitness pathways.

Effects of Light and Density on Resource Allocation in a Forest Herb, Aster acuminatus (Compositae)

Louis F. Pitelka; David S. Stanton; Mary O. Peckenham American Journal of Botany 1980. doi:10.2307/2442435

Other claims from this paper (10)

Association Plant density did not affect plant size.
Association Plant density did not affect resource allocation.
Association Vegetative reproductive effort remained constant across density and light levels.
Association Light level was significantly correlated with patch location.
Association Light level was significantly correlated with average plant size.
Association Light level was significantly correlated with average patch sexual reproductive effort.
Observation Only large plants produced flowers.
Mechanism Light may affect sexual reproduction indirectly through plant size.
Mechanism High rhizome survivorship may partly explain constant vegetative and varying sexual reproductive effort.
Mechanism Low seed survivorship may partly explain constant vegetative and varying sexual reproductive effort.
