Local Knowledge Graph (23 entities)

Knowledge graph centered on Controlled crossing experiment (Plantae) with 23 nodes and 81 connections. Top connected: elevational gradients, phenotypic plasticity, specific leaf area, Bagged flower nectar accumulation, pollinator-mediated selection.

Description

Hand-pollination experiment comparing fitness of selfed vs. outcrossed offspring by controlling pollination source and measuring resulting fruit characteristics. Uses reciprocal crosses between genetically distant populations.

Typical Equipment

• petri dishes
• measuring tools

Output Measurements

• fruit length
• fruit width
