Abstract
The posters illustrate three different aspects of the studies of pollen and ovules in Evolutionary biology. One is the study of the evolution of pollen morphology per se (see article in this volume) and the modelling of the selective forces that act on the maintenance of pollen aperture polymorphism. Another, in a genetic resources approach, points out to the variability of pollen size and fertility between landraces in a Vicia faba collection. The third one uses peculiarities of the reproductive biology of Gymnosperms to estimate outcrossing rates and selection in early life-cycle phases.
