Pollination, fertilization and fruit formation in eggplant (Solanum melongena L.)
Acta Agrobotanica, 2012 The aim of the investigations was to determine the regularity of pollination and fertilization as dependent on the phenotype of flower in eggplant. The experiment was conducted in 2005 and 2006 at the Agricultural University in Kraków, Poland. The object

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 BackgroundThe evolution of heterostyly, a genetically controlled floral polymorphism, has been a hotspot of research since the 19th century. In recent years, studies on the molecular mechanism of distyly (the most common form of heterostyly) revealed an ...

Variation in tolerance to heterospecific pollen from a non-native congener depends on co-existence history of maternal and paternal source populations. [PDF]
Am J BotAbstract Premise Plants in sympatric populations with congeners may have evolved tolerance to the negative effects of heterospecific pollen (HP) through selection on female or male reproductive traits. If so, then the degree of HP tolerance may vary depending on the co‐existence history of the maternal and paternal plant source populations.

Converging on long and short: The genetics, molecular biology and evolution of heterostyly.
Current opinion in plant biologyHeterostyly is a fascinating floral polymorphism that enhances outcrossing. In heterostylous species the flowers of the two or three morphs differ in multiple traits, including reciprocal reproductive-organ placement and self-incompatibility.

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.

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 ...
