EVOLUTION CONNECTION With respect to sexual reproduction,some plant species are fully self-fertile, others are fully selfincompatible, and some exhibit a “mixed strategy” withpartial self-incompatibility. These reproductive strategiesdiffer in their implications for evolutionary potential. How,for example, might a self-incompatible species fare as asmall founder population or remnant population in a severepopulation bottleneck (see Concept 23.3), as compared with aself-fertile species?

Evolutionary adaptations

Evolutionary adaptation is the process through which organisms adapt or adjust to their surroundings to increase the chances of survival, mating, and reproduction. An organism's behavior, physiology, and structure are adjusted or changed to make it more suited to its environment.
