Linking genome size variation to phenotypic selection on target traits
Abstract Genome size (GS) is known to be highly variable among angiosperm species. However, this variation can also occur within species. Both interspecific and intraspecific variations in GS have been often found to be linked to phenotypic traits. Therefore, selective pressures acting on these target traits may indirectly shape GS evolution within and

ABSTRACT Astragalus chamaephaca Freyn is a geographically restricted endemic species of Central Anatolia assigned to sect. Macrosemium Bunge. Detailed micromorphological data for this taxon have remained limited. This study provides a comprehensive account of pollen morphology, pollen viability, seed surface ornamentation, and indumentum characters ...

Buck Wheat: Nutritional, Bioactive Characteristics, Health Benefits, and Side Effects
ABSTRACT Micronutrient deficits have resulted from an over‐reliance on a small number of cereal crops for food security. The agricultural sector faces severe sustainability issues due to the rapid growth of the world's population and sudden climatic changes.

Molecular Basis of Pollen Germination in Cereals
Understanding the molecular basis of pollen germination in cereals holds great potential to improve yield. Pollen, a highly specialized haploid male gametophyte, transports sperm cells through a pollen tube to the female ovule for fertilization, directly determining grain yield in cereal crops.
