The fitness of self-progeny individuals is inferior to that their outcrossed counterparts, resulting in a reduction plant population’s ability survive and reproduce. To prevent self‐fertilization, angiosperms with hermaphrodite flowers may exploit variety mechanisms, including synchronous dichogamy self-incompatibility. Synchronous involves two flowering morphs, strict within-morph synchronizat...
