Male and hermaphrodite flowers in the alpine lily <i>Lloydia serotina</i>
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In perennial species that produce only one flower per individual each year, androdicy (coexistence of genetic male and hermaphrodite individuals) may be difficult to distinguish from andromoncy (male and hermaphrodite flowers on the same plant). We show that the alpine lily, Lloydia serotina Rchb., produces functionally male and hermaphroditic flowers. Mean male frequency in 11 populations in the French Alps was 48.5%, ranging from 15.5 to 67.5%. Male flowers do not produce more pollen nor sire more seeds per flower in controlled pollinations than hermaphrodite flowers. Male floral scapes were consistently shorter than those of hermaphrodites. Out of several thousand observed floral scapes, four had two flowers, all with a terminal hermaphroditic flower and an axillary male one. Among 107 bulbs transplanted in pots in 1996, eighteen expressed a different sexual phenotype in 1999 or 2000, and one hermaphrodite produced two flowers of different sexes in 2000. Together, these results suggest that L. serotina is andromoncious throughout its lifetime.Key words: Lloydia serotina, andromoncy, male reproductive success, Liliaceae.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
