EXPERIMENTAL STUDIES ON THE FUNCTIONAL SIGNIFICANCE OF HETEROSTYLY [PDF]
Evolution; International Journal of Organic Evolution, 1992 Heterostyly has been viewed as both an antiselfing device and a mechanism that increases the proficiency of pollen transfer between plants. We used experimental manipulation of the morph structure of garden populations of self-compatible, tristylous Eichhornia paniculata to investigate the function of floral polymorphism.

Reproduction: The genetic basis of heterostyly
Nature Plants, 2016Two recent studies revealed the genetic architecture of the long fascinating heterostyly in Primula and that the absence of a CYPT gene determines the long style morph.

The nonreciprocal heterostyly and heterotypic self-incompatibility of Ceratostigma willmottianum
Journal of Plant Research, 2021Ceratostigma willmottianum (Plumbaginaceae) is a perennial herb native to China. Many species of Plumbaginaceae have been reported to exhibit heterostyly. Determining the functional breeding system of C. willmottianum can improve our understanding of the reproductive ecology of heterostylous plants.

Charles Darwin was fascinated by the phenomenon of heterostyly. He described (1862, 1877) how he first thought that pin and thrum plants of Primula species represented female and male sexes respectively, but found that they were both functionally hermaphroditic. He demonstrated the infertility of self-pollinations and crosses between plants of the same

, 2014 Different strategies to reduce selfing and promote outcrossing have evolved in hermaphroditic flowers. Heterostyly, a complex floral polymorphism that occurs in at least 27 families of angiosperms, is hypothesized to achieve both goals by optimizing ...

Since heterostyly became well known over a century ago, botanists have consistently proposed that its adaptive significance lies in the encouragement it provides for outcrossing. Darwin (1877, p. 258) for example, wrote that “We may feel sure that plants have been rendered heterostyled to ensure cross-fertilization, for we know that a cross between the

Breeding experiments on the genetics of heterostyly began in the 19th century led by Hildebrand (1866) and by Darwin (1877), before Mendel’s work was rediscovered in 1900. Bateson and Gregory (1905) introduced their paper on the inheritance of heterostylism in Primula with the statement: “In view of the results obtained by Darwin, Hildebrand and others,

The Development of Heterostyly
1992Heterostyly is a genetic polymorphism in which the two (distyly) or three (tristyly) mating types in a population differ in floral morphology. The principal feature that distinguishes the floral morphs is that they differ in stigma and anther heights. The sex organs are reciprocally positioned with anthers in flowers of one morph at the same level as ...
