Plants systems rely on a variety of resources to survive and reproduce. The amount and quality of pollen a flower receives can determine not only the number of seeds that are produced, but also whether they will be viable or not. The purpose of the study looked at the relationship between the amount of pollen received by a flower and the number of seeds produced under varying watering conditions (wet and dry conditions) at the Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory. The study consisted of 26 Ipomopsis aggregata to look at the relationship between water availability and the changes in the seed to pollen relationship. Our results suggested that water conditions was not a factor in the amount of seeds made per flower, which instead depended more on the amount of pollen received on the stigma.
Knowledge graph centered on Effects of water availability on the relationship with 13 nodes and 52 connections. Top connected: Ipomopsis, I. aggregata, Ipomopsis aggregata, climate change effects on species interactions, native species.
