Mapping a Partial Andromonoecy Locus in Citrullus lanatus Using BSA-Seq and GWAS Approaches [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020 The sexual expression of watermelon plants is the result of the distribution and occurrence of male, female, bisexual and hermaphrodite flowers on the main and secondary stems. Plants can be monoecious (producing male and female flowers), andromonoecious

A Conserved Ethylene Biosynthesis Enzyme Leads to Andromonoecy in Two Cucumis Species [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 Andromonoecy is a widespread sexual system in angiosperms, characterized by plants carrying both male and bisexual flowers. Monoecy is characterized by the presence of both male and female flowers on the same plant.

The Ethylene Biosynthesis Gene CitACS4 Regulates Monoecy/Andromonoecy in Watermelon (Citrullus lanatus). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Monoecious and andromonoecious cultivars of watermelon are characterised by the production of male and female flower or male and hermaphrodite flowers, respectively.

The Andromonoecious Sex Determination Gene Predates the Separation of Cucumis and Citrullus Genera. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Understanding the evolution of sex determination in plants requires the cloning and the characterization of sex determination genes. Monoecy is characterized by the presence of both male and female flowers on the same plant. Andromonoecy is characterized

The Effect of Macronutrient Availability on Pomegranate Reproductive Development [PDF]
Plants, 2020 Pomegranate cultivation has expanded significantly in the last two decades. However, there is limited information on its fertilization requirements and the effect of macronutrient availability on its reproductive development.

Effect of Crown Layers on Reproductive Effort and Success in Andromonoecious Aesculus indica (Wall. ex Camb.) Hook (Sapindaceae) in a Temperate Forest of Garhwal Himalaya [PDF]
PlantsThe andromonoecy is an unusual sex expression in trees in which an individual plant bears both functionally staminate and hermaphrodite flowers on the inflorescences.

Evidence of andromonoecy in a northern population of Guaiacum coulteri (Zygophyllaceae).
Botanical SciencesBackground: Angiosperms exhibit diverse reproductive systems, and andromonoecy—where individuals produce both hermaphroditic and staminate flowers—is rare, occurring in about 1.7 % of species.

Maintenance of andromonoecy in an autogamous species: Superior male function in male flowers of the endangered Sagittaria guayanensis. [PDF]
Plant Divers, 2023 Andromonoecy is a rare sexual system in plants. The function of additional male flowers in andromonoecious species has been widely discussed; however, few studies have taken offspring fitness into account.

Genetic insights into the dissolution of dioecy in diploid persimmon Diospyros oleifera Cheng [PDF]
BMC Plant Biology, 2023 Background Dioecy, a sexual system of single-sexual (gynoecious/androecious) individuals, is rare in flowering plants. This rarity may be a result of the frequent transition from dioecy into systems with co-sexual individuals.

The Ethylene Biosynthesis Gene CpACO1A: A New Player in the Regulation of Sex Determination and Female Flower Development in Cucurbita pepo [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 A methanesulfonate-generated mutant has been identified in Cucurbita pepo that alters sex determination. The mutation converts female into hermaphrodite flowers and disrupts the growth rate and maturation of petals and carpels, delaying female flower ...
