On the origins of observations of heterostyly in Primula. [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2015
SummaryIn 1862, Charles Darwin published his landmark study on the different forms of flower in Primula; he coined the term distyly and subsequently expanded his studies to other species, including those with tristyly. Darwin is widely recognized as the first to study pin and thrum flowers in Primula, and to provide an explanation for the functional ...

Comparative proteomic analysis of eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) heterostylous pistil development. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Heterostyly is a common floral polymorphism, but the proteomic basis of this trait is still largely unexplored. In this study, self- and cross-pollination of L-morph and S-morph flowers and comparison of embryo sac development in eggplant (Solanum ...

Style length and flower morphology of three eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) cultivars from Iran affected by fruit load

open access: yesActa Agriculturae Slovenica, 2021
A common feature of eggplant is its heterostyly. Long-style flowers bear fruits whereas short style ones fail to do so. Heterostyly is influenced by some factors such as genotype, climatic conditions and fruit load. In this study three eggplant cultivars

Andromonoecy functional through heterostyly and large carpenter bees as principal pollinators in Solanum carolinense L. (Solanaceae)

open access: yesJournal of Threatened Taxa, 2023
Solanum carolinense is a perennial shrubby weed. In this species, andromonoecy is functional through heterostyly represented by the production of long, semi-long, medium, & short-styled flower types and another flower type lacking style & stigma ...

The Origin and Function of Heterostyly in Angiosperms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
This bachelor's theses focuses on the phenomenon of heterostyly, which is an extraordinary feature of several representatives of plants from Angiosperm group like primroses /Primula/, based on two or three simultaneously occuring forms of one species ...

Annotation of the Turnera subulata (Passifloraceae) Draft Genome Reveals the S-Locus Evolved after the Divergence of Turneroideae from Passifloroideae in a Stepwise Manner

open access: yesPlants, 2023
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.

Heterostyly and pollen dimorphism of Menyanthes trifoliata

open access: yesKorean Journal of Plant Taxonomy, 2023
Menyanthes trifoliata L., a heterostyly plant, is an endangered species in Korea. Floral morphology has been published for M. trifoliata, but few works have concentrated on pollen dimorphism differences accompanied by floral dimorphism.

Pollen and anther development malfunction in distylous flowers of Palicourea padifolia (Rubiaceae)

open access: yesBotan‪ical Sciences, 2020
Background: Heterostyly is a genetic polymorphism in which flowers differ between individual plants of a species in heights at which stamens and style are reciprocally positioned.

The Turnera Style S-Locus Gene TsBAHD Possesses Brassinosteroid-Inactivating Activity When Expressed in Arabidopsis thaliana

open access: yesPlants, 2020
Heterostyly distinct hermaphroditic floral morphs enforce outbreeding. Morphs differ structurally, promote cross-pollination, and physiologically block self-fertilization.
