Mechanical Forces in Floral Development [PDF]
Plants, 2022 Mechanical forces acting within the plant body that can mold flower shape throughout development received little attention. The palette of action of these forces ranges from mechanical pressures on organ primordia at the microscopic level up to the ...

Floral Development of Rhamnaceae and Origin of Its Unique Floral Features. [PDF]
Plants (Basel), 2023 Rhamnaceae flowers have a peculiar morphology, including keeled sepals, one stamen whorl closely related to the petals, and a broad perigynous hypanthium that supports a voluminous nectary. In the present investigation, we detailed the flower development of five Rhamnaceae species to understand the origin of such specific floral characteristics. Floral

Floral Development on Vitis vinifera Is Associated with MADS-Box Transcription Factors through the Transcriptional Regulation of VviZIP3 [PDF]
Plants, 2023 Several grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) cultivars show a tendency to develop parthenocarpic seedless grapes, affecting fruit yield and quality. This reproductive disorder originates in defective ovule fertilization due to a failure in pollen tube growth ...

Comprehensive characterization of the PeMADS gene family in Phyllostachys edulis reveals new insights into floral development and evolution [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant ScienceMADS-box genes are pivotal regulators of plant growth, development, and stress responses. While previous studies have identified only 42 MADS-box genes (PeMADS) in Phyllostachys edulis (moso bamboo), the full scope of the MADS gene family in bamboo ...

Floral development and floral phyllotaxis in Anaxagorea (Annonaceae) [PDF]
Annals of Botany, 2011 Background and Aims: Anaxagorea is the phylogenetically basalmost genus in the large tropical Annonaceae (custard apple family) of Magnoliales, but its floral structure is unknown in many respects. The aim of this study is to analyse evolutionarily interesting floral features in comparison with other genera of the Annonaceae and the sister family ...

Floral development and anatomy of Salvadoraceae [PDF]
Annals of Botany, 2009 BACKGROUND AND AIMS; This study is an investigation into the floral development and anatomy of two genera of the small family Salvadoraceae, which belongs to the Brassicales in a clade with Batis and Koeberlinia. Salvadoraceae remains little known, despite its wide distribution in arid areas of the globe.
