Determination of cardinal temperatures for sugar apple ( Annona squamosa L.)

open access: yesCiência e Agrotecnologia, 2016
The sugar apple is highly dependent on the pollination and fruit tree pollen performance is crucial for successful fertilization and fruit set. The objective of this study was to determine the cardinal temperatures for in vitro pollen grains germination ...

Studies on in vitro manipulation of male and female reproductive systems of flowering plants [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
The overall aim of this research project is to investigate the possibility of using pollen as a vector for transporting extracellular substances to the site of gamete fusion in the embryo sac.

Land birds on atolls: diversity, origin, and function

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oceanic islands are global hotspots of avian biodiversity and endemism. Their isolation and distinct environmental conditions have uniquely shaped the evolutionary trajectories of island birds, while, in turn, land bird communities have become critical providers of ecological functions to island ecosystems.

Combining phenotypic, physiological, and multi‐omics studies to provide new insights on the role of 2,4‐epibrassinolide in regulation of seed shattering in Elymus sibiricus L.

open access: yesGrassland Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Seed shattering limits the production of Elymus sibiricus L., and application of exogenous brassinosteroid significantly alleviates plant organ abscission. Methods To explore the potential regulatory network of brassinosteroid on seed shattering, the abscission zone of E. sibiricus cv. Lanyu No.

The effect of intracellular calcium level regulators on the synthesis of pollen tube callose in Oenothera biennis L.

open access: yesActa Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014
It is shown that callose synthesis in the Oenothera biennis pollen tube is regulated by the endogenous Ca2+ level. Calcium antagonists reduced the amount of callose in the wall above the tip of the pollen tube (Verapamil - calcium channels blocker) and ...

Infection mechanisms of Rhizoctonia cerealis in wheat

open access: yesiMeta, EarlyView.
We discover that R. cerealis (Rc) is a primary pathogen causing sharp eyespot of wheat after 335 distinct isolates were isolated from 1683 SE‐diseased wheat plants across China over 7 years using a single hyphal tip isolation method. We then generated high‐quality reference genomes via de novo sequencing of five representative Rc isolates and ...

The microtubular cytoskeleton in pollen tubes: structure and role in organelle trafficking

open access: yes, 2006
Microtubules are a fundamental component of plant cells, in which they achieve many critical functions. In pollen tubes, however, their specific role remains unsolved and ambiguous.

Editorial: Regulation of Pollen Tube Growth [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
In angiosperms, the pollen tube is a simple system composed of the vegetative cell and the two sperm cells which, nevertheless, accomplishes a very important process, essential for the life of flowering plants on Earth, i.e., sexual reproduction.

Pollen Morphology of Crucianella L. (Rubiaceae) Based on Light and Scanning Electron Microscope Data and Implications for Taxonomy

open access: yesMicroscopy Research and Technique, EarlyView.
This study provides the palynological analysis of 12 Crucianella L. taxa using LM and SEM. Variations in pollen size, aperture number, and exine ornamentation were identified as key traits, demonstrating their taxonomic value for distinguishing closely related species and subspecies within the genus. ABSTRACT Crucianella L.
