Quantitative and qualitative consequences of reduced pollen loads in a mixed‐mating plant

Abstract Greater pollination intensity can enhance maternal plant fitness by increasing seed set and seed quality as a result of more intense pollen competition or enhanced genetic sampling. We tested experimentally these effects by varying the pollen load from a single pollen donor on stigmas of fe...
