This study shows that foliar striping in crimson monkeyflowers is associated with increased reproductive output through larger flowers, greater nectar rewards, and higher seed production in outcrossed flowers.

This study analyzes genetic variation in a spring-specialist plant across North America, finding that climate gradients and habitat structure shape its genetic differentiation.

The study manipulates plant hormones and herbivory to assess their impact on local adaptation in Mimulus guttatus, finding that salt spray tolerance, not herbivory, drives coastal ecotype adaptation.
