In the stable #Ulex parviflorus & #Apis melifera #pollination system, stabilizing #selection & low #heritability in #flower #traits are current limiting #floral #evolution, yet maintain enough heritable variation for responding to possible novel selection pressures
Quantitative genetic analysis of floral traits shows current limits but potential evolution in the wild By @cala_castellanos et al.
