New Zealand Journal of Botany, 1979 Abstract Heterostyly is a genetically controlled floral polymorphism that is known to occur in 24 families of flowering plants. The floral morphs differ reciprocally in stamen and style lengths. They often differ in pollen grain size and production, and may differ in pollen exine sculpturing, pollen colour ...

Exploring Candidate Genes for the `S-locus': The Control of Heterostyly Across Wild and Cultivated Species in the Genus Linum [PDF]
, 2018 Heterostyly in \textit{Linum }is characterised by the presence of two floral morphs with their male and female reproductive organs located at different heights.

Recombination suppression in plant adaptation and speciation. [PDF]
New PhytolSummary Recombination suppression is increasingly recognized as an important facilitator of genomic divergence and speciation, especially under ongoing gene flow. In plants, however, the broader evolutionary consequences and the mechanisms by which recombination suppression arises and spreads are still incompletely understood, reflecting the inherent ...

Heterostyly and pollinators in Plumbago auriculata (Plumbaginaceae) [PDF]
, 2009 Plants with hermaphrodite flowers risk conflict between male and female sexual function due to close proximity of sexual organs. Heterostyly, a genetic floral polymorphism characterized mainly by reciprocal herkogamy, may reduce this sexual conflict by ...

The influence of heterostyly on the fructification of two Chaenomeles species
Acta Agrobotanica, 2013 The fructification of Chaenomeles japonica Lindl. and Ch. x superba grown in the Botanical Garden in Lublin was investigated in 1999 and 2002-2003. The influence of heterostyly on the degree of fruit setting and considerable morphological differences ...

The Genomic Selfing Syndrome Accompanies the Evolutionary Breakdown of Heterostyly
Molecular biology and evolution, 2020 The evolutionary transition from outcrossing to selfing can have important genomic consequences. Decreased effective population size and the reduced efficacy of selection are predicted to play an important role in the molecular evolution of the genomes ...
