Dicliny in Bouteloua (Poaceae: Chloridoideae): Implications for the Evolution of Dioecy

open access: yes, 2007
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 ...

A New Insight Into Pollen Release and Presentation in Actinidiaceae Plants: The Case Study of Dioecious Actinidia arguta

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
In this study, indoor and field observation methods were employed to conduct a tracking investigation on the anther dehiscence mode, pollen presentation strategy of male, and the floral characteristics and pollination traits of both female and male.

Exceptions from dioecy and sex lability in genus Salix

open access: yes, 2014
Bisexualism (and its derivatives) is a rare exception in species which already acquired the dioecious breeding system. Although it occurs in some tree species, it is still rather uncommon, except for willows, in which bisexualism occurs in at least 18 ...

Functional analysis of Salix purpurea genes support roles for ARR17 and GATA15 as master regulators of sex determination

open access: yesPlant Direct, 2023
The Salicaceae family is of growing interest in the study of dioecy in plants because the sex determination region (SDR) has been shown to be highly dynamic, with differing locations and heterogametic systems between species.

Dispersal and delimitation: Phylogenomics of Connaraceae prompts revised generic delimitation in Cnestideae and reveals global biogeographic patterns

open access: yesTAXON, Volume 75, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract The tempo and mode of assembly of the world's most diverse, tropical floras remain poorly known. Evolutionary relationships within pantropical plant clades such as Connaraceae (Oxalidales, ca. 220 species) offer an opportunity to address this issue.
