Male dominant hermaphrodites
I don't see a reproductive advantage to the plant from this behavior(male reversal limiting female reversal in subs generations), so I'm gonna put this observation down to statistical anomaly. Certainly DJ grew out a whole lotta seeds, but I'd need data sets in the hundreds of thousands to take this as anything else.
There's a strong reproductive advantage to parthenogenesis, which is why it's so damned tough to breed out a tendency to sexual ambiguity. Assuming a gene pool of reasonable size, the advantage will always go to the hermie. In an artificially small pool, parthenogenisis might tend to reinforce negative recessives and thereby self-select out thru poor/failed fecundity. Not sure where the tipping points gonna be there.
Personal experiance has not provided anecdotal evidence ( my favorite non-sequitar) that seed from reversed male displayed gender expression signifigantly skewed from baselineI assume you understand that we have options on your time,
And we will ditch you in the harbour if we must-
But if it all works out nicely,
You\'ll get the bonus you deserve
From doctors we trust.
