Sex ratio, floral traits, and genetic variation of androdioecious Osmanthus fragrans L. (Oleaceae) and the implications for maintenance of high male frequency

Several examples of androdioecy appear to have evolved from dioecy and have low male frequency (< 0.5). However, the evolutionary pathway to androdioecy in Oleaceae may come from hermaphroditism. Osmanthus fragrans L. has a 1:1 sex ratio in nature populations. Significant differences are observed...
