Random and non-random variation in flower colour along an urban–rural gradient in the introduced mustard <i>Hesperis matronalis</i>
Random variation in flower colour diversity may be influenced by stochastic processes and colonization history, while systematic variation in colour morph frequencies may reflect past fitness differences among morphs that have been recently erased by seed predation.
