FLORAL SEX RATIOS IN ANDROMONOECIOUS UMBELLIFERAE [PDF]
New Phytologist, 1980 SUMMARYThe distribution of hermaphrodite and male flowers was determined in the inflorescences of three andromonoecious species of Umbelliferae, Smyrnium olusatrum, Pastinaca sativa and Anthriscus sylvestris. Despite wide differences in the number of flowers produced per plant by the three species the floral ratio 4 male to 1 hermaphrodite was ...

Andromonoecy in an Old World Papilionoid legume, Erophaca baetica
Plant Biology, 2012 AbstractAndromonoecy (i.e. the occurrence on individual plants of hermaphroditic and male flowers) is a rare sexual system among the angiosperms, regarded by some authors as a transitional stage from hermaphroditism to monoecy. Having discovered the occurrence of andromonoecy in Erophaca baetica (a Mediterranean shrubby legume with two subspecies), a ...

Incidence, correlates, and origins of dioecy in the Island Flora of New Caledonia [PDF]
, 2014 Premise of research. Because it is an inherently risky sexual system, dioecy is globally rare. Attempts to explain unusually high incidences of dioecy on certain islands have generated a considerable literature on the relationships among dioecy, its ...

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 18, Issue 12, Page 2545-2558, December 2020., 2020 Summary Domestication and improvement are two important stages in crop evolution. Melon (Cucumis melo L.) is an important vegetable crop with wide phenotypic diversity in many horticultural traits, especially fruit size, flesh thickness and aroma, which are likely the results of long‐term extensive selection during its evolution.
