Rapid evolution in foxgloves pollinated by hummingbirds: Study

Rapid evolution in foxgloves pollinated by hummingbirds: Study ANI | Updated: Apr 12, 2021 16:29 IST Brighton [UK], April 12 (ANI): Researchers during a recent study found that common foxgloves brought to the Americas have rapidly evolved to change flower length in the presence of a new pollinator group, hummingbirds. The findings of the study were published in the British Ecological Society s Journal of Ecology. Researchers from the University of Sussex, Universidad de Los Andes (Colombia), and Universidad de Costa Rica, studying the common foxglove Digitalis purpurea, a bumblebee pollinated species native to Europe, have shown for the first time how rapid physical changes can occur in flowers following a change in environment and the presence of a new pollinator.
