Biology:Trimonoecy

From HandWiki

Trimonoecy, also called polygamomonoecy, is when male, female, and hermaphrodite flowers are on the same plant.[1] Trimonoecy is rare.[2]

It is a monomorphic sexual system along with monoecy, gynomonoecy, and andromonoecy. It is hypothesized that trimonoecy originated from gynomonoecy.[3]

Occurrence

Trimonoecy occurs in plant families like Anacardiaceae, Apiaceae, Araliaceae, Chenopodiaceae, Fabaceae, Orchidaceae, Palmae, and more.[4] It is rare in the family Commelinaceae.[5](p309)

Trimonoecious species include:
