Ornithogalum dubium, common names sun star, star of Bethlehem [2] orange star, [3] or yellow chincherinchee, is a species of flowering plant in the family Asparagaceae, subfamily Scilloideae. It is a South African (Cape Province) endemic. The Latin specific epithet dubium means "dubious" or "unlike others of the genus". [4]
The reproductive parts consist of both male and female parts (hermaphrodite). The androecium has six yellow-brown stamens that are free of the perianth and form two groups, each of about 5–8 mm ( 1 ⁄ 4 – 3 ⁄ 8 in), with filaments that are simple and flattened and oblong anthers that are 2–4 mm ( 1 ⁄ 16 – 3 ⁄ 16 in).
Gynodioecy – describes a plant species or population that has some plants that are female and some plants that are hermaphrodites. Homogamous – when the flower's anthers and stigma are ripe at the same time. Imperfect – of a flower or inflorescence, being unisexual and having organs of only a single sex. [17]
The stigma, together with the style and ovary (typically called the stigma-style-ovary system) comprises the pistil, which is part of the gynoecium or female reproductive organ of a plant. The stigma itself forms the distal portion of the style, or stylodia, and is composed of stigmatic papillae , the cells of which are receptive to pollen.
