Flowering Plant Species Differ in Their Suitability for Orius strigicollis (Poppius): Effects on Plant Preference, Longevity and Oviposition Under Laboratory Conditions

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Flowering plant species can support pest control by providing resources for natural enemies. Polyphagous predatory species of the genus Orius occur in many parts of the world and are widely used as biological control agents. They feed on several common pest species and can additionally utilize plant resources such as nectar and pollen.

Reliable assessment of pollen quality in Chrysanthemum × morifolium: comparative evaluation of viability tests and germination media

BMC Plant Biology
Background Reliable evaluation of pollen quality is essential for successful hybridization and breeding programs in Chrysanthemum × morifolium. However, commonly used staining-based pollen viability tests do not always reflect functional pollen ...

Assessment of Pollen Quality and Germination Dynamics in Chestnut (Castanea spp.): Implications of Genotypic Variation and Sucrose Concentration

ISPEC Journal of Agricultural Sciences
Pollen viability and germination are critical factors influencing reproductive success and nut yield in chestnuts (Castanea spp.). However, their dynamics across different genotypes and cultivars remain insufficient.

ZmMS1 coordinates ROS homeostasis, lipid allocation, and male fertility for maize breeding applications

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The redox‐sensitive transcriptional repressor ZmMS1 coordinates reactive oxygen species homeostasis and lipid allocation for pollen exine and anther cuticle formation. Loss or precocious expression of ZmMS1 causes male sterility. Constitutive overexpression induces dwarfism and semi‐sterility. These findings enable flexible maize male‐sterility systems

Factors Regulating In Vitro Germination of Date Palm Pollen Grams After Storage

Journal of Agricultural and Marine Sciences, 2000
Dried pollen grains of three date palm (male) cultivars grown in Oman were stored either in a freezer (-18°C), a refrigerator (4 to 5°C), or at room temperature (23 to 25°C) for 6 or 12 months.

Watermelon genotype‐independent transformation via direct organogenesis from the cotyledon base

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Inducing adventitious buds from the base of watermelon cotyledon through direct organogenesis resulted in a watermelon genetic transformation system that overcomes regeneration barriers and genotype limitations.

A robust biotechnology induces artificial genomic duplication via transient RNAi‐mediated suppression of OSD1 in rice

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Plant Polyploidization via Gene Interference, a robust technology for inducing polyploidy in various rice accessions, uses transient RNAi‐mediated suppression of OSD1 to induce genomic duplication. Two strategies were used to directly induce fertile autotetraploid plants in the first generation, thereby substantially shortening the breeding cycle ...
