Much effort has been devoted to developing theories to explain the
wide variation we observe in reproductive allocation among
environments. Reproductive Allocation in Plants describes why
plants differ in the proportion of their resources that they
allocate to reproduction and looks into the various theories. This
book examines the ecological and evolutionary explanations for
variation in plant reproductive allocation from the perspective of
the underlying physiological mechanisms controlling reproduction
and growth. An international team of leading experts have prepared
chapters summarizing the current state of the field and offering
their views on the factors determining reproductive allocation in
plants. This will be a valuable resource for senior undergraduate
students, graduate students and researchers in ecology, plant
ecophysiology, and population biology.
