Development: Painting Flowers with MYBs [PDF]
Current Biology, 2020 Color patterns influence how attractive flowers are to bees, butterflies, and birds. By combining experiments and theory, a new study shows how a pair of MYB transcription factors orchestrates the formation of pigmentation patterns on monkeyflowers.

Effects of temperature and host stage on the parasitization rate and offspring sex ratio of Aenasius bambawalei Hayat in Phenacoccus solenopsis Tinsley [PDF]
PeerJ, 2016 Temperature and host stage are important factors that determine the successful development of parasitoids. Aenasius bambawalei Hayat (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae) is a primary parasitoid of the newly invasive mealybug, Phenacoccus solenopsis Tinsley ...

Flower development in rice [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2011 The flower of rice diverged from those of model eudicot species such as Arabidopsis, Antirrhinum, or Petunia, and is thus of great interest in developmental and evolutionary biology. Specific to grass species, including rice, are the structural units of the inflorescence called the spikelet and floret, which comprise grass-specific peripheral organs ...

Current progress in orchid flowering/flower development research [PDF]
Plant Signaling & Behavior, 2017 Genetic pathways relevant to flowering of Arabidopsis are under the control of environmental cues such as day length and temperatures, and endogenous signals including phytohormones and developmental aging. However, genes and even regulatory pathways for flowering identified in crops show divergence from those of Arabidopsis and often do not have ...

Flower development: Repressing reproduction [PDF]
Current Biology, 1997 The homeotic genes that determine floral organ identity in plants turn out to be regulated by trans-acting factors related to the Polycomb-group proteins that have long been known as regulators of homeotic gene expression in Drosophila.
