Effects of reproductive resource allocation and pollen density on fertilization success in plants
Abstract Background Declining resources due to climate change may endanger the persistence of populations by reducing fecundity and thus population fitness via effects on gamete production. The optimal mode of generative reproduction allocates the limited resources to ovule and pollen production in...
