Biostimulant Application Enhances Fruit Setting in Eggplant—An Insight into the Biology of Flowering
Agronomy, 2019 Eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) is a warm climate crop. Its cultivation extends to temperate regions where low temperatures can affect the course of the generative phase, which is primarily sensitive to abiotic stress.

The Origin and Evolutionary Development of Heterostyly in the Angiosperms [PDF]
Evolution, 1967 Recent studies have indicated more and more that plant reproductive systems, like morphological characters, vary within and between species. Heslop-Harrison (1957) summarized studies of some physiological factors which affect the expression of sexuality in plants.

Presence versus absence of CYP734A50 underlies the style-length dimorphism in primroses
eLife, 2016 Heterostyly is a wide-spread floral adaptation to promote outbreeding, yet its genetic basis and evolutionary origin remain poorly understood. In Primula (primroses), heterostyly is controlled by the S-locus supergene that determines the reciprocal ...

Heterostyly in Goniolimon italicum (Plumbaginaceae), endemic to Abruzzo (central Apennines, Italy)
Anales del Jardín Botánico de Madrid, 2015 Goniolimon italicum is an endemic species to central Apennines (Italy). Here we provide the first report of heterostyly in this species. Two morphological types were identified: an S-morph with stamen filaments longer than gynoecia, stigmas with a ...

A phylogenomic analysis and revised infrageneric classification of Thesium (Santalaceae)
TAXON, Volume 75, Issue 3, June 2026.Abstract A phylogenomic analysis and revised infrageneric classification of Thesium (Santalaceae) is presented based on targeted enrichment using the Angiosperms353 probe set. This first targeted sequencing study includes 137 samples representing 106 species (approximately 32% of the genus).

Factors determining the diurnal dynamics of blooming of chosen plant species
Acta Agrobotanica, 2012 The paper attempts to synthesize the determinants which may influence the diurnal rhythm of blooming. Additionally, I tried to explore and bring together topics that concern blooming and have always been considered separately because of their origin in ...

The Red Queen unveils the sexual and mating strategies of flowers
Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 5, May 2026.Although the conventional wisdom is that floral traits of plants evolved in concert with their mutualistic pollinators, here we showed that several key sexual and mating traits of plants, which modulate their outcrossing strategy, evolved in response to the pressure exerted by their antagonistic insect herbivores.
