Reproductive stages in lowbush blueberry (Vaccinium angustifolium) occur earlier with increasing temperature

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Climate change is altering the timing of many plant phenological events, yet most studies focus on flowering, with less attention given to later reproductive stages such as fruit development and ripening. Vaccinium angustifolium (lowbush blueberry) is an important perennial berry species that may be sensitive to these changes.

The Effect of Different Pollination Methods on Seed Yield and Germination Features in Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni

Türkiye Tarımsal Araştırmalar Dergisi, 2015
Pollination is a prerequisite system for reproductive of many plants and it is more important in self-compatible plants. Since, these plants need other flowers pollen for flower fertilization and seed production.

An Economic Valuation of Pollination Services in Georgia [PDF]

The production of many crops depends on biotic pollination. As pollinator populations decline, assessments of the potential consequential loss of economic value are critical.

Success of coastal sage scrub restoration is influenced by local adaptations of shrub species

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Restoring plant communities is increasingly challenging with climate change. While practitioners have traditionally used local seed sources, many are recommending assisted migration, possibly from more extreme environments such as inland rather than coastal environments, for restoration.

Determination of Cross-Pollination in Safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) Using Different Experimental Designs

Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2014
This study was carried out at the University of Ankara, Faculty of Agriculture and Field Crops Department experimental field during 2012-2013. Two safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) cultivars having two different characters (spiny and spineless) were ...

Heterosis in crosses between remnant populations of the rare prairie forb Silene regia: Implications for restoration genetics

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Calls to adopt seed‐sourcing strategies in biological restoration that preserve local adaptation while maximizing genetic variation (e.g., regional admixture provenancing) are increasingly common. Heterosis, the increased fitness of progeny from crosses between populations relative to progeny from crosses within populations, could ...

Comparison of varying pollen source on productivity of sour cherry (Prunus cerasus L.) cultivars

International Journal of Horticultural Science, 2010
Fruit set of five sour cherry cultivars (‘Újfehértói fürtös’, ‘Éva’, ‘Petri’, ‘Pándy 279‘ and ‘Csengôdi’) of eight years-old trees grown in Újfehértó, located in the Eastern north part of Hungary have been studied over two years (2008 & 2009).

Arbosana Olive Is Self-Incompatible, but Inter-Compatible with Some Other Low-Vigor Olive Cultivars

Horticulturae
Trendy high-density olive fields are often monovarietal orchards, mostly using the cultivar Arbequina. However, Arbequina shows a strong self-incompatibility response, and its yields depend on wind cross-pollination, which is not always available.
