Sexual Plant Reproduction [PDF]
Annals of Botany, 2011 Flowering plants are the most successful group of land plants, containing over 90 % of species and dominating almost every terrestrial ecosystem. This evolutionary success is due, in part, to their sophisticated reproductive biology centred on the eponymous flower, where female gametophytes are hidden and protected by the sporophyte carpel/pistil ...

Delayed Germination of Seeds: A Look at the Effects of Adult Longevity, the Timing of Reproduction, and Population Age/Stage Structure [PDF]
, 1994 The effects of adult longevity, the timing of reproduction, and population age/stage structure on the evolution of seed dormancy are explored in both constant and variable environment models. In the constant environment models complete germination is the

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background B‐acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B‐ALL) is the most common pediatric cancer, and while most children in high‐resource settings are cured, therapy carries risks for long‐term toxicities. Understanding parents’ concerns about these late effects is essential to guide anticipatory support and inform evolving therapeutic approaches ...

Reproduction: Plant Parentage à Trois [PDF]
Current Biology, 2018 Blocks to polyspermy are thought to be universally adaptive because they prevent lethal genome imbalance and chromosome segregation defects. However, two recent reports show that plants with two male parents are viable and could contribute significantly to polyploid speciation.
