What is diocious?

In the botanica there is a diocious term used to describe the sexuality of certain flowering plants. Dioecous plants are species in which each individual has only male or only female flowers, but usually not both. Unlike most flowering plants, these species cannot be felt. Other main types of plant sexuality are described as monoecious and hermaphroditic. In monooecioral plants, each individual plant has separate flowers of men and women. In Hermaphroditism, in each individual flower there is the most common type of plant sex, occurring in more than 80% of species, male and female parts.

Most flowers are hermaphroditic. Therefore, they can produce both female reproductive cells called megaspores or seeds and male reproductive cells called microspora or pollen. However, this is not true of diocious flowers that produce only one type of spore. Man or Androemicious, flowers produce pollen and female or gynecious, flowers produce seeds. If to tOMU will occur, the plant will have both male and female flowers, although it usually does not apply to the species. Such species are sometimes referred to as subdioecous species.

An example of a type of plant plants is European Holly, Ilex Aquifolium. Male and female Holly plants have white flowers, but are very different in terms of their sexual structure. The male plant has flowers with sticks, male structures that produce pollen, and a small sterile female stigma. The female plant has a normal stigma and small sterile sticks that cannot produce no pollen.

Dooces tends to be more common in trees and shrubs than other types of plants. These include the trees of the Willow family, birch and some types of trees. Some urban tree growers prefer female trees because they do not produce pollen and therefore reduce the occurrence of allergies to the pollen of trees.

Biological advantage of dioces is often considered SKFunction that cross pollination is ensured in diocious species. This means that the genetic diversity of descendants will increase. However, general plants risk that they will not be able to reproduce if another opposite sex plant is not located in the immediate vicinity.
