Our research broadly encompasses plant evolutionary ecology, spanning the fields of population ecology, pollination biology, quantitative genetics, population genetics, and conservation biology. We combine observational field studies, manipulative field and greenhouse experiments, and genetic/genomics tools to explore how ecological, demographic, and genetic factors influence plant mating patterns and shape the evolution of reproductive traits. http://rachelspigler.weebly.com/
