If so, given sufficient competition, longer styles will have higher rates of pollen tube attrition (failure to reach the style base) within the style than shorter ones. Alternatively, style length may influence pollen receipt, which itself may affect attrition rates.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>METHODS:<\/jats:title><jats:p>We tested these predictions by collecting senescing styles from wild populations of two insect\u2010pollinated <jats:italic>Clarkia<\/jats:italic> species. We examined the number of pollen grains adhering to the stigma, length of styles, and rates of attrition from the stigma surface to the stigma\u2013style junction (SSJ), from the SSJ to the style base, and from the stigma surface to the style base. Multivariate analyses estimated the independent effects of pollen grains per stigma, the number of pollen tubes at the SSJ, and style length on attrition.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>KEY RESULTS:<\/jats:title><jats:p>Style length was generally positively correlated with pollen receipt, and the number of pollen grains per stigma was positively correlated with all three attrition rates. In neither species was any attrition rate affected by style length independent of the number of pollen grains per stigma.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>CONCLUSIONS:<\/jats:title><jats:p>Pollen attrition was mediated by style length, but the function of style length was primarily to increase the number of germinating pollen grains, which affected attrition rates either through stigma clogging or pollen\u2013pollen interactions. Style length may have a direct effect on pollen receipt due to the stigma's position relative to pollinator body parts, but traits correlated with style length may also directly affect pollen receipt.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3732\/ajb.1500192","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,3,1]],"date-time":"2016-03-01T22:15:00Z","timestamp":1456870500000},"page":"408-422","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":22,"title":["Winning in style: Longer styles receive more pollen, but style length does not affect pollen attrition in wild <i>Clarkia<\/i> populations"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"103","author":[{"given":"Susan J.","family":"Mazer","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Arrash","family":"Moghaddasi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Alexandra K.","family":"Bello","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Alisa A.","family":"Hove","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2016,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_7_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/nrg776"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1469-8137.2004.01183.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/jxb\/ers308"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1017\/S0960258515000033"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1098\/rspb.1985.0031"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1469-8137.2006.01920.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1139\/b00-014"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF01677860"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/j.1537-2197.1961.tb11669.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1558-5646.1989.tb04230.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1663\/0006-8101(2006)72[179:TEOGNP]2.0.CO;2"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1558-5646.1996.tb02354.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1890\/0012-9658(2000)081[3244:MOFAIF]2.0.CO;2"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/j.1537-2197.1989.tb11348.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_16_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/j.1537-2197.1990.tb13534.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_17_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1420-9101.2007.01444.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_18_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1098\/rspb.1998.0381"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_19_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1420-9101.2007.01421.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_20_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2307\/3544832"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_21_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086\/377061"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_22_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/aob\/mcr093"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_23_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1105\/tpc.11.4.727"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_24_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1744-7429.1999.tb00143.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_25_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3732\/ajb.89.10.1570"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_26_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1469-8137.2004.00978.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_27_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-2699.2005.01307.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_28_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.sajb.2012.03.011"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_29_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s004970050092"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_30_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1469-8137.2010.03201.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_31_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF00333249"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_32_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/j.1537-2197.1993.tb15384.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_33_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086\/338395"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_34_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2307\/3546700"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_35_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086\/528751"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_36_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1034\/j.1600-0706.2001.920110.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_37_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00497-002-0162-4"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_38_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1558-5646.2007.00167.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_39_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/10520295909114663"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_40_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086\/656305"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_41_1","unstructured":"M.
