Dichogamy in angiosperms [PDF]

open access: yesBotanical Review, The, 1993
We obtained information on dichogamy and other aspects of the biology of over 4200 species of angiosperms from several hundred published and unpublished sources. We used this information to describe patterns of occurrence of dichogamy and to test specific hypotheses relating dichogamy to other characteristics of plants or their environments.

INCIDENCE OF MONOECY AND DICHOGAMY IN RELATION TO SELF‐FERTILIZATION IN ANGIOSPERMS

American Journal of Botany, 1993
The evolution of many floral traits, including monoecy and dichogamy, has been attributed to selection for avoidance of self‐fertilization. If this explanation is correct, monoecy and dichogamy should be uncommon among self‐incompatible species because physiological barriers prevent self‐fertilization in such species.

Correlated Evolution of Dichogamy and Self‐Incompatibility: A Phylogenetic Perspective

International Journal of Plant Sciences, 2004
Historically, dichogamy, the temporal separation of male and female function in flowering plants, has been interpreted as a mechanism for avoiding inbreeding. However, a comparative survey found that many dichogamous species are self‐incompatible (SI), indicating dichogamy evolved for other reasons.

Effects of floral sexual investment and dichogamy on floral longevity [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Plant Ecology, 2015
Aims Floral longevity, the duration that a flower remains open and functional, varies greatly among species. Variation in floral longevity has been considered to be optimal strategy for resource allocation under different ecological conditions, mainly determined by the rates of pollination and cost of flower maintenance.
