Geographical gradients in leaky sex expression and reproductive effort in a dioecious plant are consistent with selection during range expansion

This study shows that range-edge populations of the dioecious plant Mercurialis annua exhibit leaky sex expression and higher reproductive effort, suggesting selection for reproductive assurance during range expansion.

Widespread male sterility and trioecy in androdioecious Mercurialis annua: an account of its distribution, its genetic basis, and estimates of its morph-specific fitness components

This study documents trioecy in Mercurialis annua, identifies its genetic basis, and estimates fitness components of different sexes.
