A new case of late-acting self-incompatibility in Capparis L. (Brassicaceae): C. jacobinae Moric. ex Eichler, an endemic andromonoecious species of the Caatinga, Pernambuco State, Brazil Novo registro de auto-incompatibilidade de ação tardia em Capparis (Brassicaceae): C. jacobinae Moric. ex Eichler, uma espécie andromonóica endêmica da Caatinga, PE, Brasil

open access: yesActa Botânica Brasílica, 2009
We studied the reproductive system of Capparis jacobinae Moric ex Eichler (Brassicaceae), based on controlled hand-pollination and observation of pollen tube growth made in a fluorescence microscope.

FLORAL SEX RATIOS IN ANDROMONOECIOUS UMBELLIFERAE [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 1980
SUMMARYThe distribution of hermaphrodite and male flowers was determined in the inflorescences of three andromonoecious species of Umbelliferae, Smyrnium olusatrum, Pastinaca sativa and Anthriscus sylvestris. Despite wide differences in the number of flowers produced per plant by the three species the floral ratio 4 male to 1 hermaphrodite was ...

Resequencing of 297 melon accessions reveals the genomic history of improvement and loci related to fruit traits in melon

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 18, Issue 12, Page 2545-2558, December 2020., 2020
Summary Domestication and improvement are two important stages in crop evolution. Melon (Cucumis melo L.) is an important vegetable crop with wide phenotypic diversity in many horticultural traits, especially fruit size, flesh thickness and aroma, which are likely the results of long‐term extensive selection during its evolution.
