Extreme functional specialization of fertile leaves in a widespread fern species and its implications on the evolution of reproductive dimorphism
Abstract Resource allocation theory posits that organisms distribute limited resources across functions to maximize their overall fitness. In plants, the allocation of resources among maintenance, reproduction, and growth influences short‐term economics and long‐term evolutionary processes, especial...
