TAXON, Volume 75, Issue 2, April 2026.Abstract Solanum malmeanum, a wild relative of the potato (S. tuberosum), is native to Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay. This wild potato species belongs to the tertiary gene pool (2x = 2n = 24, 1EBN – Endosperm Balance Number) and possesses valuable traits for potato breeding. Understanding its reproductive mechanisms is crucial for effectively

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 1, Page 616-628, April 2026.Summary Autonomously self‐fertilizing plants possess disproportionate abilities to found populations. Viewed from the metapopulation perspective, founding events should be frequent in such plants, but the intensity and timing of bottlenecks and recovery should vary among populations.

Pollination in the Antarctic flowering plant Colobanthus quitensis (Kunth) Bartl.
Acta Agrobotanica, 2012 Colobanthus quitensis forms chasmogamic and cleistogamic flowers. Their structure signals the possibility of both cross-pollination and self-pollination.

Adding perches for cross-pollination ensures the reproduction of a self-incompatible orchid. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Outcrossing is known to carry genetic advantages in comparison with inbreeding. In many cases, flowering plants develop a self-incompatibility mechanism, along with a floral component adaptation mechanism, to avoid self-pollination and to promote ...

SSR markers indicate a common origin of self-pollinating dwarf coconut in South-East Asia under domestication [PDF]
, 2016 The commercial cultivation of dwarf coconut is rare in the world, representing about 5% of global population. However, Dwarfs are currently receiving more attention, particularly for the harvest of tender nut water.
