FURTHER STUDIES ON ARTIFICIAL PARTHENOCARPY [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, 1938
IN THIS study on induced parthenocarpy the writer has had two objects in mind: to test out new compounds and to obtain further information on the mechanism of fruit development. The following new compounds have been used: 9,10-di-n-propyl-9,10dihydroxy 9,10 dihydro-1 ,2,5,6-dibenzanthracene and its potassium salt; 9-phenanthrylacetic acid and its ...

To vegetable: Seasons that require us

open access: yesCrop Science, Volume 65, Issue 2, March/April 2025.
Abstract Domestication of cereals tracks with the natural life cycle of plants in the Poaceae family, but vegetables represent a different modality and often possess a truncated life cycle. The evolution of vegetable biodiversity required curatorial work each growing season that differed in important ways from curation of grains or perennial crops ...

Hormonal Regulation of Early Fruit Development in European Pear (Pyrus communis cv. ‘Conference’)

open access: yesHorticulturae, 2019
European pear requires inter-cultivar cross-pollination by insects to develop fertilized fruits. However, some European pear cultivars such as ‘Conference’ naturally produce parthenocarpic seedless fruits.

Bananas: The Spread of a Tropical Forest Fruit as an Agricultural Staple [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The banana (Musa) is one of the world’s most important crops and the most valuable fruit in the global market. In the search for varieties that are more pest- and disease-resistant plant breeders are increasingly looking to the wild progenitors,—as ...

Inbreeding Depression Manifested in Progeny From Fragmented Populations of the Wind‐Pollinated Dioecious Conifer Afrocarpus gracilior (Pilg.) C. N. Page

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 2, February 2025.
Forest fragmentation in Afrocarpus gracilior reduced genetic diversity and caused significant inbreeding depression, especially in smaller populations. Progeny from these populations showed lower genetic diversity, reduced germination rates, slower growth, and diminished survival. Seeds should be sourced from larger, genetically diverse populations for

Parthenocarpy in Cucumis sativus L. as Affected by Genetic Parthenocarpy, Thermo-photoperiod, and Femaleness1

open access: yesJournal of the American Society for Horticultural Science, 1977
Abstract Parthenocarpic fruiting of genetically parthenocarpic and non-parthenocarpic pickling cucumber lines was determined under different thermo-photoperiods. The genetically parthenocarpic line, MSU 364G, produced both earlier and more fruits under all thermo-photoperiod treatments than the genetically non-parthenocarpic line, Gy ...

Genetic Improvement of Banana for Resistance to Xanthomonas Wilt in East Africa

open access: yesFood and Energy Security, Volume 14, Issue 1, January/February 2025.
ABSTRACT Banana (Musa spp.) is a staple food and income generation crop, feeding millions worldwide. However, the cultivation of bananas is challenging due to biotic and abiotic production constraints. Among these factors are pests and diseases, especially banana bacterial disease.
