Biological Reviews, Volume 95, Issue 5, Page 1442-1466, October 2020., 2020 ABSTRACT Although most plants produce all of their fruits (seeds) aboveground, amphicarpic species produce fruits (seeds) both above‐ and belowground. Our primary aims were to determine the number of reported amphicarpic species and their taxonomic, geographic, life form and phylogenetic distribution, to evaluate differences in the life history of ...

Embryological studies on Fragaria x ananassa Duch. after pollination by three species of Potentilla
Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014 Embryological studies were carried out after pollinating four female varieties of Fragaria ananassa Duch. (Freja, Sonja, Mieze Schindler, Reine des Precoce) with three species of Poteiatilla (P. geoides, P. rupestris, P. fruticosa).

On the cytology of apogamy and apospory.—II. Preliminary note on apospory [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Containing Papers of a Biological Character, 1905 Apospory is the direct vegetative process which leads from the sporophyte to the gametophyte without the intervention of spores. This phenomenon has for a long time been known to occur in mosses and ferns, and several writers have described its morphological characters, but its cytological history has hitherto remained unrecorded.

In Silico and Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization Mapping Reveals Collinearity between the Pennisetum squamulatum Apomixis Carrier-Chromosome and Chromosome 2 of Sorghum and Foxtail Millet. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Apomixis, or clonal propagation through seed, is a trait identified within multiple species of the grass family (Poaceae). The genetic locus controlling apomixis in Pennisetum squamulatum (syn Cenchrus squamulatus) and Cenchrus ciliaris (syn Pennisetum ...

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018 Apomixis is a clonal mode of reproduction via seeds, which results from the failure of meiosis and fertilization in the sexual female reproductive pathway. In previous transcriptomic surveys, we identified a mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase

Inheritance of Apospory in Bahiagrass, Paspalum Notatum
Hereditas, 2004 Previous studies on the inheritance of aposporous apomixis in bahiagrass showed a wide range of segregation ratios in crosses involving sexual and aposporous apomictic plants. The F1 progenies were classified through a visual progeny test carried out on few F2 plants.

Transcriptome analysis of the Arabidopsis megaspore mother cell uncovers the importance of RNA helicases for plant germline development. [PDF]
PLoS Biology, 2011 Germ line specification is a crucial step in the life cycle of all organisms. For sexual plant reproduction, the megaspore mother cell (MMC) is of crucial importance: it marks the first cell of the plant "germline" lineage that gets committed to undergo ...

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study estimated the repeatability of forage traits in 84 Paspalum nicorae ecotypes using six statistical methods and quantified the minimum number of harvests needed for effective selection. Multivariate analyses based on best linear unbiased prediction (BLUP) values were also performed to assess genetic variability, identify key traits ...
