Abstract:Phenological and morphological variation are widely viewed as a pivotal driver of ecological adaptation and speciation. Oryza rufipogon and O. nivara, the wild progenitors of cultivated rice, are most closely related and provide a unique system for investigating ecological adaption and speciation. Here, we investigate variation patterns of flowering phenology and morphological traits within and between O. rufipogon and O. nivara populations in Sri Lanka by incorporating the in situ observation in natural habit… Show more
