A primary study of breeding system of Ziziphus jujuba var. spinosa. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2021 Ziziphus jujuba var. spinosa has been used as a windbreak and for soil conservation and water retention. Previous studies focused on pharmacological effects and extraction of chemical components in this species, and very few explored the breeding system.

Interaction among ploidy, breeding system and lineage diversification
New Phytologist, 2019 If particular traits consistently affect rates of speciation and extinction, broad macroevolutionary patterns can be interpreted as consequences of selection at high levels of the biological hierarchy.
