From distyly to stigma-height dimorphism: phylogenetic insights into the evolutionary breakdown of distyly in Jasminum

Shiqiao Chen, Kai Zhang, Jianyu Zhang, Yu Zhang, XIA PENG, Miaomiao Shi, Xiangping Wang, Shijin Li, Zhonghui Ma, 涂铁要, Zhongtao Zhao, Dianxiang Zhang

This study investigates the evolution of distyly and stigma-height dimorphism in Jasminum using phylogenetic analysis and morphology, finding that distyly originated in the common ancestor and SHD arose multiple times through reversion.
