Evolution and Taxonomic Significance of Seed Micromorphology in Impatiens (Balsaminaceae)
Impatiens is one of the most species-rich genera of angiosperms, with more than 1,000 species distributed in Eurasia and Africa. Previous studies have shown that seeds of Impatiens display enormous morphological diversity, and seed micromorphology may ...

Identifying Drought-Tolerant Impatiens Genotypes by Using Water Stress Treatment
The drought-tolerant Impatiens genotypes are known for their resistance to limited or stressed water. The study aimed to identify drought-tolerance of Impatiens clones. The experiment used a split-plot design replicated three times, with the water stress

Physiological and growth responses of Chinese chives (Allium tuberosum) to elevated CO2 concentrations and infestation by fungus gnat (Bradysia impatiens) [PDF]
Elevated CO2 (eCO2) levels can alter plant physiology by reducing stomatal density, weakening transpiration, enhancing photosynthesis, accelerating growth, increasing the carbon-to-nitrogen ratio, and lowering nitrogen content.
