Functional Heterostyly in Tylosema esculentum (Caesalpinioideae) [PDF]
Annals of Botany, 2002 Tylosema esculentum is a long-lived perennial species endemic to arid areas of southern Africa. Its potential as a crop species has long been recognized as a result of the high oil and protein content of its seeds. The reproductive biology and breeding systems of the species were investigated in wild and experimental populations growing in Botswana ...

Heterostyly in Linum aretioides
Turkish Journal of Botany, 2013 The petal width; sepal, pistil, and stamen lengths; and changes in pollen sizes associated with heterostyly of different morphs in populations of Linum aretioides Boiss. were investigated. Fruit sets were compared in 2 populations and it was investigated whether the Bozdag population has a heteromorphic incompatibility system.
