Ovule development, a new model for lateral organ formation
In spermatophytes the ovules upon fertilization give rise to the seeds. It is essential to understand the mechanisms that control ovule number and development as they ultimately determine the final number of seeds and, thereby, the yield in crop plants ...

Exploring the Diversity of Ovule Development in the Novel Rice Mutant ShuangLi Using Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy [PDF]
Low energy N+ ion beam implantation has been used to create the novel rice mutant “shuangli”, which produces partially fertile spikelets containing double grains.

PIN3 positively regulates the late initiation of ovule primordia in Arabidopsis thaliana.
Ovule initiation determines the maximum ovule number and has great impact on seed number and yield. However, the regulation of ovule initiation remains largely elusive.

Calculation of the ovule number in the genus Salix: A method for taxa differentiation
Premise Recent investigations have demonstrated that the number of ovules present in the ovaries of the willow flower (Salix spp., Salicaceae) can be used to confirm the identification of species and hybrids.

Ectopic ovaries are a rare finding in the literature, with fewer than 50 published cases to date. This phenomenon has been found in the omentum, bladder, mesentery, and uterus; attached to the colon; inside the left labia majora; and in the kidney.

A genome-wide association study reveals a novel regulator of ovule number and fertility in Arabidopsis thaliana. [PDF]
Ovules contain the female gametophytes which are fertilized during pollination to initiate seed development. Thus, the number of ovules that are produced during flower development is an important determinant of seed crop yield and plant fitness.
