Evolution of plant reproduction: from fusion and dispersal to interaction and communication [PDF]

, 2009
Based on the existing data concerning the evolution of the sexual reproduction, it is argued that the processes of sex differentiation and interactions play a key role in evolution. From the beginning environment and organism are unified.

Efficient and versatile rapeseed transformation for new breeding technologies

The Plant Journal, Volume 123, Issue 1, July 2025.
SUMMARY Many gene functions are widely studied and understood in Arabidopsis; however, the lack of efficient transformation systems often limits the application and verification of this knowledge in crop plants. Brassica napus L., a member of the Brassicaceae family, is usually transformed by Agrobacterium‐mediated hypocotyl transformation, but not all

Intracellular delivery of fluorescent protein into viable wheat microspores using cationic peptides

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Microspores are specialized generative cells with haploid genome that demonstrate the amenability towards embryogenesis under certain conditions. The induced microspore culture technique is largely exploited by the breeding programs of wheat and other ...

Advancements in hybrid rice production: improvements in male sterility and synthetic apomixis for sustainable agriculture

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 6, Page 2330-2345, June 2025.
Summary Rice serves as a staple food for approximately half of the world's population, and enhanced yields from hybrid rice play a crucial role in ensuring food security and augmenting incomes. However, the annual purchase and high cost of hybrid seeds hinder widespread hybrid rice adoption.

CTB6 Confers Cold Tolerance at the Booting Stage by Maintaining Tapetum Development in Rice

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 10, March 13, 2025.
In this study, we cloned a novel cold‐tolerance gene, CTB6, from the Yunnan plateau cultivar KMXBG. CTB6 is mainly expressed in the tapetum and young microspores of anthers. It regulates tapetum development by maintaining the stability of catalases and increases the lipid content in anthers to enhance the cold tolerance at the booting stage in rice ...

Genetic, molecular and cellular approaches to the analysis of maize embryo development [PDF]

, 2009
The development of embryo structures in plants is essential for the formation of the adult plant organs. In cereals, this process has distinct features which have attracted attention from different points of view.

GOLEM: A tool for visualizing the distribution of Gene regulatOry eLEMents within the plant promoters with a focus on male gametophyte

The Plant Journal, Volume 121, Issue 5, March 2025.
Significance Statement Precise localization and visualization of gene regulatory motifs in gene promoters, in relation to gene transcription in specific tissues, can be challenging, especially for researchers without advanced bioinformatics expertise. GOLEM (Gene regulatOry eLEMents) is a freely available tool that enables users to precisely locate any

Evolutionarily conserved mechanisms of male germline development in flowering plants and animals [PDF]

, 2014
Sexual reproduction is the main reproductive strategy of the overwhelming majority of eukaryotes. This suggests that the last eukaryotic common ancestor was able to reproduce sexually.
