Inheritance of distyly and homostyly in self-incompatible Primula forbesii. [PDF]
The evolutionary transition from self-incompatible distyly to self-compatible homostyly frequently occurs in heterostylous taxa. Although the inheritance of distyly and homostyly has been deeply studied, our understanding on modifications of the classical simple Mendelian model is still lacking.

Annotation of the Turnera subulata (Passifloraceae) Draft Genome Reveals the S-Locus Evolved after the Divergence of Turneroideae from Passifloroideae in a Stepwise Manner [PDF]
A majority of Turnera species (Passifloraceae) exhibit distyly, a reproductive system involving both self-incompatibility and reciprocal herkogamy. This system differs from self-incompatibility in Passiflora species.

Genetics of distyly and homostyly in a self-compatible Primula [PDF]
The transition from outcrossing to selfing through the breakdown of distyly to homostyly has occurred repeatedly among families of flowering plants. Homostyles can originate by major gene changes at the S-locus linkage group, or by unlinked polygenic modifiers.

Crop yield mediated by honeybees in a star fruit orchard exhibiting atypical distyly
The dependence of commercial crops on pollinators is closely related to their reproductive strategies and has direct impacts on production yields. Fruit production of Averrhoa carambola, the star fruit, is highly dependent on bee pollination.

Ecological correlates and genetic consequences of evolutionary transitions from distyly to homostyly [PDF]
The outbreeding floral polymorphism heterostyly frequently breaks down, resulting in the evolution of self-fertilization as a result of homostyle formation. Here, the loss of floral polymorphism in distylous Primula oreodoxa, a sub-alpine species restricted to western Sichuan, China, was examined by investigating the ecological correlates and genetic ...

The rapid appearance of homostyly in a cultivated distylous population of Primula forbesii [PDF]
Evolutionary breakdown from rigorous outbreeding to self‐fertilization frequently occurs in angiosperms. Since the pollinators are not necessary, self‐compatible populations often reduce investment in floral display characteristics and pollination reward.

The S-Gene YUC6 Pleiotropically Determines Male Mating Type and Pollen Size in Heterostylous Turnera (Passifloraceae): A Novel Neofunctionalization of the YUCCA Gene Family [PDF]
In heterostylous, self-incompatible Turnera species, a member of the YUCCA gene family, YUC6, resides at the S-locus and has been hypothesized to determine the male mating type.
