Sly-miR159 regulates fruit morphology by modulating GA biosynthesis in tomato. [PDF]

Plant Biotechnol J, 2022
Summary Fruit morphology is an important agronomical trait of many crops. Here, we identify Sly‐miR159 as an important regulator of fruit morphology in tomato, a model species of fleshy‐fruit development.

Fruit morphology of the genus Pimpinella (Apiaceae) in Turkey

Anales del Jardín Botánico de Madrid, 2018
To explore if fruit morphology could aid in taxonomy of the genus Pimpinella L., we have undertaken a study of fruits from 26 Turkish taxa of Pimpinella using light and scanning electron microscopy—SEM—.

"Phoenix in Flight": an unique fruit morphology ensures wind dispersal of seeds of the phoenix tree (Firmiana simplex (L.) W. Wight). [PDF]

BMC Plant Biol, 2022
Background Many seed plants produce winged diaspores that use wind to disperse their seeds. The morphology of these diaspores is directly related to the seed dispersal potential.
