Abstract: | Variation patterns of flower colour in some species of theAnemoneae can be correlated with edaphic variables. These examples are used in the argument that discriminative pollination through colour responsive pollen vectors is not the sole cause for non-randomness in intraspecific flower colour distributions. Some possible reasons for genetic linkage between genes controlling edaphic responses and genes controlling flower pigmentation are discussed. |
