Many Spathiphyllum cultivars are sterile through extensive hybdridisation and who knows, eggcell-distortion may be one of the reasons! In general never use cultivars for studies unless the studies have a horticultural goal that allows the results of the studies to explain phenomena in a horticultural context. Wilbert Hetterscheid
