Traits and hidden states: is self-fertilization associated with rates of diversification across mating and sexual systems?

Elena M. Meyer, Michael S. Rosenberg, Bret M. Boyd, Andrew J. Eckert

The paper examines how mating and sexual systems affect diversification rates across 18 plant families, finding that sexual systems better explain diversification than mating systems.

The evolutionary dynamics of plant mating systems: how bias for studying 'interesting' plant reproductive systems could backfire

Elena M. Meyer, Laura F. Galloway, Andrew J. Eckert

The paper updates a dataset of plant mating systems across 6,781 species and identifies sampling biases that may overestimate self-fertilization frequency.
