title: Data from: Multiple aspects of the selfing syndrome of the morning glory Ipomoea lacunosa evolved in response to selection: a Qst-Fst comparison

description: The frequent transition from outcrossing to selfing in flowering plants is
 often accompanied by changes in multiple aspects of floral morphology,
 termed the “selfing syndrome.” While the repeated evolution of these
 changes suggests a role for natural selection, genetic drift may also be
 responsible. To determine whether selection or drift shaped different
 aspects of the pollination syndrome and mating system in the highly
 selfing morning glory Ipomoea lacunosa, we performed multivariate and
 univariate Qst-Fst comparisons using a wide sample of populations of I.
 lacunosa and its mixed-mating sister species I. cordatotriloba. The two
 species differ in early growth, floral display, inflorescence, corolla
 size, nectar, and pollen number. Our analyses support a role for natural
 selection driving trait divergence, specifically in corolla size and
 nectar traits, but not in early growth, display size, inflorescence size,
 or pollen traits. We also find evidence of selection for reduced herkogamy
 in I. lacunosa, consistent with selection driving both the transition in
 mating system and the correlated floral changes. Our research demonstrates
 that while some aspects of the selfing syndrome evolved in response to
 selection, others likely evolved due to drift or correlated selection, and
 the balance between these forces may vary across selfing species.
