Berry Batesian mimicry enables bird dispersal of asexual bulbils in a yam [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of SciencesMany plants that abandon sex rely on clonal propagules, but their short dispersal distances can trap offspring near parent plants and enemies. We show that the yam Dioscorea melanophyma —which has lost sexual reproduction—evolved black, glossy bulbils that mimic co-occurring black berries and

Auxin regulates bulbil initiation by mediating sucrose metabolism in Lilium lancifolium [PDF]
Horticulture ResearchAbstract Lily bulbils, which serve as advantageous axillary organs for vegetative propagation, have not been extensively studied in terms of the mechanism of bulbil initiation. The functions of auxin and sucrose metabolism have been implicated in axillary organ development, but their relationship in regulating bulbil initiation remains ...
