Recent studies have begun to challenge the prevailing view that natural selection within local plant populations is the major evolutionary process driving this form of coevolution. The emerging pattern from these studies suggests that metapopulation structure, including the effects of gene flow and genetic drift, may be at least as important as local natural selection in determining the genetic dynamics and outcomes of these evolutionary arms races.
