Immense floral trait variation has likely arisen as an adaptation to attract pollinators. Different pollinator syndromes-suites of floral traits that attract specific pollinator functional groups-are repeatedly observed across closely related taxa or divergent populations. The observation of these

One of the most powerful drivers of speciation in plants is pollinator-mediated disruptive selection, which leads to the divergence of floral traits adapted to the morphology and behavior of different pollinators. Despite the widespread importance of this speciation mechanism, its genetic basis has
