Dioecy, the coexistence of separate male and female individuals in a population, is a rare
but phylogenetically widespread sexual system in flowering plants. While research has …

Angiosperms display an enormous diversity of forms, functions and strategies when it comes
to reproduction. This multiplicity has been translated into several terminological concepts …

Heteroplasmy occurs when copies of an organellar genome (plastid or mitochondrial) differ
from one another either within a cell or among cells within an individual. This phenomenon …

Premise of research. Gynodioecy, a dimorphic sexual system where individual plants are
either female or hermaphroditic, has been documented in≪ 1% of plant species. This rarity …

Gynodioecy, a sexual system where females and hermaphrodites co‐occur, is found in<<
1% of angiosperm species. To understand why gynodioecy is rare, we need to understand …

PREMISE OF THE STUDY: Sex lability (ie, gender diphasy) in plants is classically linked to
the larger resource needs associated with the female sexual function (ie, seed production) …

Abstract Background and Aim In gynodioecious plants, male-sterile individuals must have a
female advantage to coexist with bisexual individuals. In European chestnuts, characterized …

Selection is frequency dependent when an individual's fitness depends on the frequency of
its phenotype. Frequency-dependent selection should be common in gynodioecious plants …

Mating systems show two kinds of frequent transitions: from hermaphroditism to dioecy,
gynodioecy or androdioecy, or from self-incompatibility (SI) to self-compatibility (SC). While …

In gynodioecious plant species with nuclear‐cytoplasmic sex determination, females and
hermaphrodites plants can coexist whenever female have higher seed fitness than …
