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.

Variation in tolerance to heterospecific pollen from a non-native congener depends on co-existence history of maternal and paternal source populations. [PDF]

open access: yesAm J Bot
Abstract Premise Plants in sympatric populations with congeners may have evolved tolerance to the negative effects of heterospecific pollen (HP) through selection on female or male reproductive traits. If so, then the degree of HP tolerance may vary depending on the co‐existence history of the maternal and paternal plant source populations.

Is distyly in subtropical Psychotria brachyceras (Rubiaceae) similar to the general trends observed for the genus?

open access: yesActa Botânica Brasílica, 2022
Distyly is a floral polymorphism that promotes cross-pollination through precise pollination. Psychotria is a mostly tropical genus of distylous Rubiaceae.

The functional roles of 3D heterostyly and floral visitors in the reproductive biology of Turnera subulata (Turneroideae: Passifloraceae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Heterostyly is a floral polymorphism that reduces conflicts between sexual functions (sexual interference), such as self-pollination in self-incompatible flowers and loss of pollen to incompatible stigmas.

The influence of heterostyly on the fructification of two Chaenomeles species

open access: yesActa 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 ...

Evolution of Autonomous Selfing in Marginal Habitats: Spatiotemporal Variation in the Floral Traits of the Distylous Primula wannanensis

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Outcrossing plant species are more likely to exhibit autonomous selfing in marginal habitats to ensure reproduction under conditions of limited pollinator and/or mate availability.

Pollination, fertilization and fruit formation in eggplant (Solanum melongena L.)

open access: yesActa Agrobotanica, 2012
The aim of the investigations was to determine the regularity of pollination and fertilization as dependent on the phenotype of flower in eggplant. The experiment was conducted in 2005 and 2006 at the Agricultural University in Kraków, Poland. The object
