Conventional studies of phenotypic selection on floral traits often ignore the mating system and inbreeding depression. These results show that the within‐flower selfing rate depends on floral sex allocation and phenology. Under strong inbreeding depression, neglecting such dependence biases estimates of phenotypic selection on those traits.

Determination of Relative Auxin Content in Hermaphrodite and Andromonoecious Cucumis sativus L. [PDF]
A cau.sal relationship between growth substances and sex expression probably exists in Cucumis sativus L. (cucumber). This.assumption is based on a number of publications which documented a shift towards femaleness in monoe,cious cucumbers treated with auxins (8), or with growth retardants (16).

Alocação de sexo dependente de tamanho em Solanum lycocarpum St. Hil. (Solanaceae) [PDF]
Resource allocation to reproduction can change depending on size, as predicted by the size-dependent sex allocation. This theory is based on the fact that small individuals will invest in the allocation of sex with lower cost of production, usually male ...

Fine mapping of ClACS7 gene regulating bisexual flowers in watermelon (Citrullus lanatus L.)
Monoecious and andromonoecious cultivars of watermelon are characterised by the production of male and female flowers, or male and hermaphrodite flowers, respectively.

Sexual Dimorphism and Gynoecium Size Variation in the Andromonoecious Shrub Caesalpinia gilliesii
Abstract: The degree of sexual dimorphism in flowers and inflorescences can be evaluated early in flower development through the study of floral organ size co‐variation. In the present work, the gynoecium‐androecium size relationship was studied to assess the degree of sexual expression in flowers and inflorescences of the andromonoecious shrub ...

International audienceA number of Cucurbita pepo genotypes showing instable monoecy or partial andromonoecy, i.e. an incomplete conversion of female into bisexual flowers, have been detected. Given that in melon and cucumber andromonoecy is the result of

Flower morphology, gender functionality, and pollinator dynamics in Solanum carolinense: implications for the evolution of andromonoecy [PDF]
Morphological differences in flowers have important evolutionary consequences; they influence the plant's relationship with pollinators and are strongly correlated with sexual function in some breeding systems. Here, I explore the functional relationship

Dicliny in Bouteloua (Poaceae: Chloridoideae): Implications for the Evolution of Dioecy
The New World grass genus Bouteloua (Chloridoideae: Cynodonteae) comprises 57 species, 13 of which produce unisexual spikelets and hence are diclinous. Andromonoecy, gynodioecy, monoecy, trimonoecy, and dioecy all occur in the genus, and ten species are ...

1‐aminocyclopropane‐1‐carboxylate synthase (ACS) is a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of the plant hormone ethylene. Recently, a new biological role for ACS has been found in Cucumis melo where a single point mutation (A57V) of one isoform of the enzyme ...
