Summary Introduction

To analyze:

The differences in the genetic variations in the yup locus of Mimulus cardinalis (M. cardinalis) and Mimulus lewisii (M. lewisii) plant species affecting the visitation by the hummingbirds and bees.

Given:

The variation at a single locus called the yup caused color differences in the two species, which was found by the researchers. The gene of M. cardinalis allele C is recessive, whereas the allele L of the M. lewisii is dominant.

The genotypes CC were found to be red, and the genotypes LC and LL were found to be light pink. The preference of the bees and hummingbirds were recorded. The graphs below show the visitation rates of the bees and hummingbirds.
