项目摘要

A major unsolved question in biology is why plant populations often maintain a mixture of two reproductive strategies, self-fertilization and cross-pollination. Long standing genetic theories predict that these should rarely co-exist. Yet this dual strategy is surprisingly common in nature, suggesting that existing theory is inadequate. This project tests the hypothesis that ecological interactions among plant species help maintain dual strategies. When multiple plant species flower together and share pollinators, pollen is often wasted on flowers of other species, reducing the benefits of cross-pollination. The researchers will evaluate this hypothesis through a combination of theory development, field studies of pollinator behavior, and molecular genetic studies of parentage. This research will enhance conservation of plant and pollinator communities and will help scientists understand how invasive species and habitat fragmentation influence pollination. A partnership with an economically-disadvantaged K-12 school will foster improved understanding of conservation and biodiversity. Focusing on the perennial plant Mimulus ringens, empirical and theoretical studies will investigate how pollinator sharing affects the tradeoff between outcross siring and selfing. Manipulative experiments will evaluate whether changes in the ecological context, the abundance of a co-flowering species Lobelia siphilitica, influence patterns of natural selection on selfing. Comparisons of 32 natural populations that vary in the type and abundance of co-flowering species will provide information on selfing rates, pollen limitation, floral morphology, and inbreeding depression, and evolutionary responses. Models will be developed using an adaptive dynamics approach that will incorporate the automatic advantage of selfing, evolutionary changes in inbreeding depression; it will account for pollen loss caused by the presence of a co-flowering species, and will explore the range of genetic and ecological factors that could generate stabilizing selection on mixed mating. These linked empirical and theoretical investigations will provide a broad new framework for understanding the evolution of plant mating systems.

生物学中一个尚未解决的主要问题是，为什么植物种群经常保持两种生殖策略的混合，即自花受精和异花授粉。长久以来的遗传学理论预测，这两种基因很少会共存。然而，这种双重策略在自然界中惊人地普遍，这表明现有的理论是不够的。该项目检验了植物物种之间的生态相互作用有助于维持双重战略的假设。当多个植物物种一起开花并共享授粉者时，花粉往往被浪费在其他物种的花朵上，减少了异花授粉的好处。研究人员将通过理论发展、传粉者行为的实地研究和亲子关系的分子遗传学研究来评估这一假设。这项研究将加强植物和传粉者群落的保护，并将帮助科学家了解入侵物种和栖息地破碎化如何影响授粉。与经济上处于不利地位的K-12学校的伙伴关系将促进对保护和生物多样性的更好理解。针对多年生植物Mimulus ringens，实证和理论研究将探讨传粉者共享如何影响异交父系和自交之间的权衡。操纵实验将评估是否在生态环境的变化，丰富的共花物种半边莲，影响模式的自然选择自交。32个自然种群的类型和丰度不同的共花物种的比较将提供有关自交率，花粉限制，花形态，近交衰退和进化反应的信息。模型将开发使用自适应动力学的方法，将纳入自交的自动优势，在近交衰退的进化变化，它将占花粉损失所造成的存在的共花物种，并将探讨的范围内的遗传和生态因素，可以产生稳定的选择混合交配。这些经验和理论的研究将为理解植物交配系统的进化提供一个广泛的新框架。
