Evolution: Cleistogamy to the rescue of zygomorphic flowers

Current Biology, 2021
Cleistogamous flowers never fully bloom and are thought to have evolved as a means to promote self-fertilisation. A new study reveals that this curious feature arose more frequently in flowers with bilateral symmetry.

Occurrence of Preanthesis Cleistogamy in Richardia brasiliensis Suggests It May Be More Common in Rubiaceae Than Realised

Plant Ecology and Diversity
Background: Most Rubiaceae species are hermaphroditic with outcrossing often promoted by distyly and self-incompatibility, as well as by andromonoecy and dioecy in some species. However, cleistogamy has been reported in three genera, including Richardia.

Cleistogamy in Two Species of Danthonia

Botanical Gazette, 1928
D. spicata is widely distributed in the eastern part of the United States. In Indiana its clumps of curly leaves often stand out as a striking feature of the winter flora of clay hills so poor as to support little else in the way of a ground covering. Material for this study was collected in open fields and in the woods on poor clay soil north and east

CLEISTOGAMY IN ANDROPOGON L. (GRAMINEAE)

American Journal of Botany, 1982
Eleven species of Andropogon produce single‐stamened flowers, and all but one of these species bear some cleistogamous flowers. Nine of the species, all diploid perennials, make up the Andropogon virginicus complex. Cleistogamy in the virginicus complex results from precocious maturation of the flowers, which leaves them confined within their spikelets
