Genetic Regulation of Mitosis–Meiosis Fate Decision in Plants: Is Callose an Oversighted Polysaccharide in These Processes?

open access: yesPlants, 2023
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 ...

Sustainable deployment of QTLs conferring quantitative resistance to crops: first lessons from a stochastic model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Quantitative plant disease resistance is believed to be more durable than qualitative resistance, since it exerts less selective pressure on the pathogens.

Evolution of distyly breakdown in Palicoureeae Robbr. & Manen and Psychotrieae Cham. & Schltdl. (Rubiaceae)

open access: yesActa Botânica Brasílica, 2022
Distyly is a floral polymorphism with reciprocal placement of male and female structures, heteromorphic self-incompatibility, and other ancillary traits. However, breeding system breakdowns and loss of polymorphism are common.

The effect of insect herbivory on the growth and fitness of introduced Verbascum thapsus L. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A majority of the plant species that are introduced into new ranges either do not become established, or become naturalized yet do not attain high densities and are thus considered ecologically and economically unproblematic. The factors that limit these

Seasonal variability of groundwater level effects on the growth of Carex cinerascens in lake wetlands

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
Groundwater level is crucial for wetland plant growth and reproduction, but the extent of its effect on plant growth can vary along with changed precipitation and temperature at different seasons.

Plant Reproduction [PDF]

open access: yesThe Plant Cell, 2002
In a letter addressed to Joseph Hooker in 1879, Charles Darwin referred to the rapid development and diversification of the flowering plants in recent geological times as an “abominable mystery.” The mystery of the origin of angiosperms, the development of floral characters, and the ...

Variation in plastid genomes in the gynodioecious species Silene vulgaris

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2019
Background Gynodioecious species exist in two sexes – male-sterile females and hermaphrodites. Male sterility in higher plants often results from mitonuclear interaction between the CMS (cytoplasmic male sterility) gene(s) encoded by mitochondrial genome

Densovirus induces winged morphs in asexual clones of the rosy apple aphid, Dysaphis plantaginea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Winged morphs of aphids are essential for their dispersal and survival. We discovered that the production of the winged morph in asexual clones of the rosy apple aphid, Dysaphis plantaginea, is dependent on their infection with a DNA virus, Dysaphis ...
