Pertaining to plants or vegetable species whose single individuals structurally bear both hermaphroditic (bisexual) flowers and exclusively male (staminate) flowers on the same stem. This morphological trait represents the adjectival character linked to andromonoecy, playing a major structural role in regulating gene flow and adapting pollination.
