Study of the early abortion in reciprocal crosses between Phaseolus vulgaris L. and Phaseolus polyanthus Greenm [PDF]
The causes of early embryo abortion in the reciprocal crosses between Phaseolus vulgaris L. and Phaseolus polyanthus Greenm. were studied. Methacrylate resin sections, 2 micron meter thick, of 2 to 6 day-old hybrid seeds were used to examine the stage of

Structural variation drives rhizome innovation and adaptive divergence in sister Medicago species
Chromosome‐scale genome analysis, population resequencing, stress‐responsive transcriptomes and functional assays showed that coding and regulatory structural variants, especially gene duplications and noncoding presence‐absence variants, underlie rhizome formation in alpine Medicago archiducis‐nicolai and contrasting xeric adaptation in its non ...

Effect of Relative Air Himidity on the Stomatal Functionality in Fully Developed Leaves [PDF]
Several studies have shown that stomata developed under long-term high relative air humidity (RH =85%) are malfunctional, resulting in a poor control of water loss.

A haplotype‐resolved telomere‐to‐telomere genome reveals that the bird‐shaped turquoise flowers of Strongylodon macrobotrys (jade vine) arise from co‐pigmentation between the anthocyanin malvin and the flavonoid saponarin, shaped by genome dynamics and geological event‐associated expansions of long terminal repeat ...
