Osmoregulation determines sperm cell geometry and integrity for double fertilization in flowering plants.

Molecular Plant, 2022
Distinct from the motile flagellated sperms in animals and early land plants, the non-motile sperm cells of flowering plants are carried in the pollen grain to the female pistil.

Fruit growth and development in apple: a molecular, genomics and epigenetics perspective

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Fruit growth and development are physiological processes controlled by several internal and external factors. This complex regulatory mechanism comprises a series of events occurring in a chronological order over a growing season.

Removal of the endoplasma membrane upon sperm cell activation after pollen tube discharge

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
In pollen and pollen tubes, immotile sperm cells are enclosed by an inner vegetative plasma membrane (IVPM), a single endomembrane originating from the vegetative-cell plasma membrane.

Central Cell in Flowering Plants: Specification, Signaling, and Evolution

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
During the reproduction of animals and lower plants, one sperm cell usually outcompetes the rivals to fertilize a single egg cell. But in flowering plants, two sperm cells fertilize the two adjacent dimorphic female gametes, the egg and central cell ...

Long-Term Manure Amendment Sustains Black Soil Biodiversity by Mitigating Acidification Induced by Chemical N Fertilization

Microorganisms, 2022
The long-term use of chemical N fertilization may have a negative impact upon soil fertility and quality. On the contrary, organic fertilization is considered a sustainable development agricultural strategy.

The use of double cropping in combination with no-tillage and optimized nitrogen fertilization reduces soil N2O emissions under irrigation.

Science of the Total Environment, 2022
The irrigation systems of the Ebro valley can lead to high N2O emissions. The effects that crop diversification, such as double cropping in combination with conservation tillage and different N fertilizer ratios, has on soil N2O emissions have not been ...

Poles Apart: Monosporic, Bisporic, and Tetrasporic Embryo Sacs Revisited

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Bisporic embryo sacs contain nuclei derived from two members of a megaspore tetrad whereas tetrasporic embryo sacs contain nuclei derived from all four members of a tetrad.

Fertilization capacity with rainbow trout DNA-damaged sperm and embryo developmental success [PDF]

, 2010
Mammalian spermatozoa undergo a strong selection process along the female tract to guarantee fertilization by good quality cells, but risks of fertilization with DNA-damaged spermatozoa have been reported.
