Single-cell RNA-seq reveals a link of ovule abortion and sugar transport in Camellia oleifera

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science
Camellia oleifera is the most important woody oil crop in China. Seed number per fruit is an important yield trait in C. oleifera. Ovule abortion is generally observed in C. oleifera and significantly decreases the seed number per fruit.

The Arabidopsis INNER NO OUTER (INO) gene acts exclusively and quantitatively in regulation of ovule outer integument development

open access: yesPlant Direct, 2023
The INNER NO OUTER (INO) gene is essential for formation of the outer integument of ovules in Arabidopsis thaliana. Initially described lesions in INO were missense mutations resulting in aberrant mRNA splicing. To determine the null mutant phenotype, we

The mitochondrial DNA copy number and ovary‐related reproductive disorders: A bidirectional two‐sample Mendelian randomization study

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 169, Issue 1, Page 112-120, April 2025.
Abstract Objective In the present study, a bidirectional two‐sample Mendelian randomization approach was utilized to explore potential causal relationships between mitochondrial DNA copy number (mtDNA‐CN) and ovary‐related reproductive disorders (ORRDs), including ovarian dysfunction, ovarian cyst, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), premature ovarian ...

Variation in pollen limitation among reproductive modules points to likely resource reallocation in the alpine plant Veratrum grandiflorum

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Pollen limitation, a decrease in seed production due to insufficient pollen receipt, may influence plant demography and the evolution of sexual systems. Its empirical estimation of pollen supplementation of some of the flowers on an individual is well known to be prone to overestimation due to potential resource reallocation among the individual's ...

The concentration of elements in the central vacuole sap and endosperm tissue during embryogenesis (Clivia miniata Regel)

open access: yesActa Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014
Changes in the concentration of eight elements (K, Na, Ca, Mg, Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu) in the central vacuole sap and endosperm tissue during development of Clivia miniata ovules using atomic absorption spectrometry were determined.

Sedum zhenghaianum (Crassulaceae), a new species from Zhejiang and Jiangxi, East China

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
In this paper, Sedum zhenghaianum sp. nov. is described as a new species based on morphological and molecular analyses, and its taxonomic relationships are discussed. Morphological analysis indicates that S. zhenghaianum should be classified in the genus Sedum sect. Sedum and is distinct from the related species S. tosaense in morphology, e.g.

Seed characters and their usefulness in the separation of Asteraceae species

open access: yesActa Scientiarum: Biological Sciences, 2015
Studies on seed structure of Asteraceae have received little attention of botanists. Seed structure in Asteraceae is analyzed to evaluate the usefulness of characters in the separation of species through the analysis of nine weedy species.

Relations entre le développement défectueux des ovaires et l'involution des ovules chez Vitis vinifera L. var. Chardonnay

open access: yesOENO One, 1993
Chez Vitis vinifera L. var. Chardonnay, le développement normal des ovules est de type Polygonum, mais les antipodes sont éphémères. Un grand nombre d'ovules ne peuvent suivre une ontogénie normale et involuent plus ou moins précocement.
