However, the character states related to heterostyly have not been fully disclosed in <em>S. macrophylla.</em> Additionally, <em>S. macrophylla</em> has a reproductive issue due to a lack of seeds in fruits. This research aims to examine the floral characteristics and detail of sexual organs (androecium and gynoecium) in this species and to analyze the consequences of heterostyly on its natural pollination. We collect flowers from 34 individuals and investigate the inaccuracy index and all of floral character states. We used light and stereo microscopes to evaluate the heterostyly syndrome through morpho-anatomical observations of the flowers. Our results reveal that the two floral types (S-morph and L-morph) of <em>S. macrophylla</em> possess reciprocal herkogamy with ancillary pollen polymorphism in palynological characters, differences in pollen number, and pollen viability. These characters suggest that <em>S. macrophylla</em> has distyly type. Furthermore, the reproductive organs of the floral morphs appear to contribute differently to reproductive fitness. The S-morph flowers demonstrate enhanced male function through higher pollen production and viability, while the L-morph flowers exhibit enhanced female function through floral architecture that promotes effective pollen reception.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":37957,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Asia-Pacific Biodiversity","volume":"18 4","pages":"Pages 900-911"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145718967","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The 157,521 bp genome exhibited a typical quadripartite structure, consisting of two inverted repeats (26,082 bp each), a large single-copy region (86,561 bp), and a small single-copy region (18,796 bp).

Phylogenomic analysis of 78 shared protein-coding genes from 28 Phyllanthaceae species resolved several well-supported tribal clades. <em>Flueggea suffruticosa</em> formed a robust subclade with two accessions of <em>Flueggea virosa</em> (Roxb. ex Willd.)

The tracked gulls migrated an average distance of 2405.5 km [standard deviation (SD) ± 327.9] in autumn and 2219.9 km (SD ± 666.5) in spring, traveling between their breeding grounds in northern Mongolia and their wintering sites in the Yellow Sea region. These wintering locations include the coastal areas of Shanghai, Yantai, Laizhou Bay, Bohai Bay, Liaodong Bay, and the coastal region of Donggang in China. In South Korea, they have been observed in Goyang, as well as along the coastal region of Gukhwado Island and in Gunsan. This study reveals the variability in migration routes among the sub-population of Mongolian Gulls in northern Mongolia, highlighting different stopovers and distinct migratory patterns.
