Plant reproduction in red clover requires cross-fertilization via insect pollination. However, the influences of visitation rate and timing on maximizing ovule utilization are yet to be determined.

Population dynamics of a long-lived alpine plant with sexual and clonal reproduction [PDF]
This thesis focuses on the demography, reproduction, and pre-dispersal seed predation of the alpine clonal plant Geum reptans. In chapter 2, I studied the population dynamics of G.

Arabinogalactan proteins (AGPs) are hydroxyproline-rich glycoproteins containing a high proportion of carbohydrates, widely distributed in the plant kingdom and ubiquitously present in land plants. AGPs have long been suggested to play important roles in

The costs of reproduction in plants [PDF]
SummaryThis review reports on the processes associated with costs of reproduction, including some theoretical considerations, definitions and methodological aspects, followed by a list of the situations where costs are difficult to find. Despite some exceptions, case studies, examined by trade‐offs between reproduction and other life‐history traits ...

Possible molecular mechanisms of persistent pollen tube growth without de novo transcription
The vegetative cell nucleus proceeds ahead of a pair of sperm cells located beneath the pollen tube tip during germination. The tip-localized vegetative nucleus had been considered to play a pivotal role in the control of directional pollen tube growth ...

The basic reproduction number of vector-borne plant virus epidemics [PDF]
The basic reproduction number R0 is a key parameter in plant disease epidemiology, which largely determines whether or not an epidemic will occur in a plant population.

Timely progression of the meiotic cell cycle and synchronized establishment of male meiosis in anthers are key to ascertaining plant fertility. With the discovery of novel regulators of the plant cell cycle, the mechanisms underlying meiosis initiation ...

Evolution of reproductive isolation in plants [PDF]
Reproductive isolation is essential for the process of speciation and much has been learned in recent years about the ecology and underlying genetics of reproductive barriers. But plant species are typically isolated not by a single factor, but by a large number of different pre- and postzygotic barriers, and their potentially complex interactions ...
