Ovule development, a new model for lateral organ formation
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014 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 ...

On the Way to Ovules: The Hormonal Regulation of Ovule Development [PDF]
Critical Reviews in Plant Sciences, 2020 [EN] This review focuses on the hormonal regulation of ovule development, especially on ovule initiation, patterning, and morphogenesis. Understanding of the genetic and molecular basis of ovule development is essential from both the scientific and economic perspective.

PIN3 positively regulates the late initiation of ovule primordia in Arabidopsis thaliana.
PLoS Genetics, 2022 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
Applications in Plant Sciences, 2021 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.

A genome-wide association study reveals a novel regulator of ovule number and fertility in Arabidopsis thaliana. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2019 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.

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 IntroductionDifferentiation of spore mother cells marks the somatic-to-reproductive transition in higher plants. Spore mother cells are critical for fitness because they differentiate into gametes, leading to fertilization and seed formation.
