Morphological and Molecular Characterization of Orchid Fruit Development
Efficient seed dispersal in flowering plants is enabled by the development of fruits, which can be either dehiscent or indehiscent. Dehiscent fruits open at maturity to shatter the seeds, while indehiscent fruits do not open and the seeds are dispersed ...

Induced defence by a root hemiparasite increases host plant resistance against future infection
Infection by root hemiparasites can increase mortality of parasites during future infection, indicating induced host defence mechanisms. Abstract European grassland plants are frequently attacked by root hemiparasites. However, little is known about host defence responses to parasitism.

Ridging cultivation and root restriction cultivation are beneficial due to their improvement of the soil permeability in the root zone of grapevine, and they are widely used in southern China, Japan, and other countries. However, with the intensification

Plant evolution is largely driven by adaptations in seed protection and dispersal strategies that allow diversification into new niches. This is evident by the tremendous variation in flowering and fruiting structures present both across and within ...

Abstract Enhancing feed resource availability and nutritional qualities with healthful soil management practices is a decisive intervention for future livestock husbandry in developing countries. However, there is a need for sound recommendations on agronomic practices and fertilization due to local differences in the climate and soil profiles ...

Microscopic distribution of syringin in freeze‐fixed Syringa vulgaris stems
Monolignols are precursors of lignin, and their glucosides are often found in plants. Glucosylation creates water‐soluble and chemically stable monolignols by protecting the phenolic hydroxyl group.

Aspects of hybrid larch (Larix X eurolepis Henry) as a potential tree species in southern Swedish forestry [PDF]
The interest in growing hybrid larch (Larix × eurolepis Henry) in southern Sweden has increased in recent decades, one of its assumed advantages being high volume growth.

Cadmium-induced lignification restricts soybean root growth
The effects of cadmium (Cd), a well-known environmental pollutant with high toxicity to plants, were tested on root growth, cell viability, phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) soluble plus cell wall-bound peroxidase (POD) activities, hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) levels, and the content and monomeric composition of lignin in soybean (Glycine max) roots ...

Abstract Shade stress affects soybean yield in intercropping, but the molecular basis of cultivar‐specific tolerance is unclear. We analyzed shade‐tolerant (Guru) and sensitive (Heinong 53) soybeans under 30% and 70% shade using transcriptomic, physiological, and biochemical methods.
