“…Programmed Cell Death (PCD) has been proposed as a principal force for driving the development of unisexuality in angiosperms through Type I [ 8 , 9 , 10 ]. However, the abortion of the male and female organs can occur in different stages and tissues [ 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 ] and it is species dependent.…”

“…In Cactaceae, female sterility varies considerably between taxa [ 15 ]. In the functionally dioecious O. stenopetala , the ovule abortion in staminate flowers was initiated in early primordial stages [ 26 ], whereas in Consolea , the ovule degeneration was induced prior to anthesis and after the development of embryo sac [ 27 ].…”

“…A common cause of male sterility is the mistimed degeneration of anther wall layers, primarily the tapetum. Mistimed PCD prevents viable pollen formation and is one of the strategies developed by angiosperms to produce unisexual flowers (Flores-Rentería et al 2013 ; Hernández-Cruz et al 2019 ; Ren et al 2019 ). Normal degeneration of the tapetum and middle layer tissues is vital for the provision of nutrients and wall materials for pollen maturation.…”

“…Normal degeneration of the tapetum and middle layer tissues is vital for the provision of nutrients and wall materials for pollen maturation. Infertility in a variety of species such as Tapiscia sinensis, an androdioecious tree, or in dioecious cacti, in the Opuntia family is ensured by preventing the deposition of essentials materials for mature pollen formation, without the need to restructure the anther (Flores-Rentería et al 2013 ; Hernández-Cruz et al 2019 ; Ren et al 2019 ).…”

“…The spikelet, the basic unit of the maize florescence, contains one upper and one lower flower. The two bisexual florets become exclusively staminate in the tassel and exclusively pistillate in the ear via the selective abortion of pistils in tassel florets and the arrest of staminate development in the ear floret (Hernandez‐Cruz et al 2019).…”
