Breeding system in Olea ferruginea Royle (Oleaceae): comparative performance of staminate and perfect flowers in reproductive assurance

Botany Letters, 2023
Olea ferruginea, a wild widely distributed species of the olive lineage, exhibits andromonoecy with protogynous perfect (hermaphrodite) and staminate (male) flowers.

Greater reproductive assurance of asexual plant compared with sexual relative in a low‐density sympatric population: Experimental evidence for pollen limitation

Journal of Evolutionary Biology, 2021
High reproductive assurance is regarded as a key advantage of uniparentally reproducing organisms for establishing a new population. This demographic benefit should especially be relevant for plants with autonomous apomixis, that is those which produce ...

DOES CLEISTOGAMOUS SELF-FERTILIZATION PROVIDE REPRODUCTIVE ASSURANCE AGAINST SEED PREDATION IN RUELLIA HUMILIS?

The Southwestern naturalist, 2021
Mixed mating is thought to be adaptive in many species of flowering plants because self-fertilization provides reproductive assurance when pollinator densities are low.

Pollination biology of Gossypium turneri: Autonomous selfing provides reproductive assurance in an endangered wild cotton from Sonora, Mexico

Plant Species Biology
The wild cotton, Gossypium turneri, is a rare and endemic species from the state of Sonora, Mexico, threatened by habitat destruction, tourism development, and buffelgrass invasion in the municipality of Guaymas. As a consequence, G.

Extra-stigmatic pollen germination and pistil elongation: a novel strategy towards reproductive assurance in Dodonaea viscosa subsp. angustifolia

Australian Journal of Botany
Context Reproductive success in dioecious plant species may be limited by severe pollen limitation owing to their separate sexes and pollination barriers. Aims Dodonaea viscosa subsp.

Can obligate apomixis and more stable reproductive assurance explain the distributional successes of asexual triploids in Hieracium alpinum (Asteraceae)?

Plant biology, 2018
Although reproductive assurance has been suggested to be one of the most important factors shaping the differential distributional patterns between sexuals and asexuals (geographic parthenogenesis), it has only rarely been studied in natural populations ...

Induced cleistogamy: A strategy for reproductive assurance in Murdannia nudiflora (Commelinaceae)

Botany, 2019
Murdannia nudiflora (L.) Brenan is a day flower that is dependent on entomophilous pollination. Despite the lack of pollinator attractants and its short flower longevity, M. nudiflora shows high rates of fecundity, which lead to their rapid dispersal. In
