Combining biological approaches to highlight the evolution of Musa complex [PDF]
The diversity of the banana complex can be deciphered only by jointly characterizing the original wild species and their relatives, the primitive diploid forms and the triploid varieties.

Five cytoplasmic male sterile (CMS) lines of eggplant “Uttara” (Solanum melongena L.) with the cytoplasms of S. kurzii (KUR), S. violaceum (VIO), S. aethiopicum (AET), S. anguivi (ANG), and S. grandifolium (GRA) and three restorers of fertility (RF) lines of CMS from AET, ANG, and GRA were compared for the fertility traits to determine which CMS are ...

In flowering plants, pollination, pollen tube growth, and fertilization are regarded as the first hierarchical processes of producing offspring. However, their independent contributions to fruit set and development remain unclear.

Genome-wide identification of pistil-specific genes expressed during fruit set initiation in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) [PDF]
Fruit set involves the developmental transition of an unfertilized quiescent ovary in the pistil into a fruit. While fruit set is known to involve the activation of signals (including various plant hormones) in the ovary, many biological aspects of this ...

ABSTRACT Cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) and restorer of fertility (Rf) are important traits in F1 hybrid breeding. However, the CMS/Rf system has not been used in tomatoes because of the limited resources of Rf lines. In this study, we performed mutagenesis in tomato CMS seeds and successfully obtained 13 suppressor mutants with pollen fertility ...

Artificial pollination and use of growth regulators in atemoya ‘Gefner’ fruits
The objective was to study the effectiveness of the growth regulator (ANA + GA3) associated or not to the application of adjuvant and artificial pollination in ‘Gefner’ atemoya.

Differences in the genetic structure of citrus triploid hybrids recovered from 2x X 2x and 4x X 2x sexual hybridizations [PDF]
Citrus triploid hybrids can be recovered by 2x X 2x hybridisations as a consequence of the formation of 2n gametes or by interploid hybridisation. Most of the 4x parents used in our program are doubled-diploid (DD), also known as autotetraploid.

Metabolite profiling characterises chemotypes of Musa diploids and triploids at juvenile and preflowering growth stages [PDF]
Open Access Journal; Published online: 15 March 2019Bananas (Musa spp.) are consumed worldwide as dessert and cooking types. Edible banana varieties are for the most part seedless and sterile and therefore vegetatively propagated.

Study on Floral Syndrome and Breeding System of an Endangered Species Rhododendron nymphaeoides
This study divided the flowering process of Rhododendron nymphaeoides into five periods and systematically investigated the floral traits, pollen morphology and viability, optimal solid media for in vitro pollen germination, storage temperature screening, pollen–ovule ratio and hybridization index, stigma receptivity, the effects of different ...

Fruit development is actively restricted in the absence of fertilization in Arabidopsis [PDF]
Flowering plants usually require fertilization to form fruit and seed and to initiate floral organ abscission in structures that do not contribute to the fruit.
