Annals of the Missouri Botanical Garden, 1974 (Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) A study of four Piper species and one Pothomorphe species in Costa Rica showed that insects do visit some Piperaceae flowers and are probably involved in pollination. Due to the globular nature of the pollen it is not likelythat wind or rain are significantpollination agents.

CHIP‐NMC: An Application for Corn Hybrid and Inbred Prediction of Nixtamalization Moisture Content
Cereal Chemistry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background and Objectives The quantity of water absorbed during the nixtamalization of maize greatly influences the final product's taste, nutritional profile, and machinability. A machine learning model that uses near‐infrared spectroscopy to predict the moisture content of nixtamalized maize inbred lines was previously developed.

Floral biology and pollination in Brazil: history and possibilities
Acta Botânica BrasílicaPollination research in Brazil virtually started with Fritz Muller, whose insights supported Darwin's evolutionary theory. Pollination systems of Brazilian plants were studied mainly by travelling researchers until early last century when native or ...

Interaction Between Actin and Microtubules During Plant Development
Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The dynamic interaction between actin filaments (AFs) and microtubules (MTs) plays a crucial role in regulating key developmental and physiological processes in plant cells, particularly in the formation of specialized cell types with distinct shapes and functions, such as pollen tubes, trichomes, and leaf epidermal cells.

FloPE: Flower Pose Estimation for Precision Pollination [PDF]
arXivThis study presents Flower Pose Estimation (FloPE), a real-time flower pose estimation framework for computationally constrained robotic pollination systems. Robotic pollination has been proposed to supplement natural pollination to ensure global food security due to the decreased population of natural pollinators.

Design of an Autonomous Precision Pollination Robot [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Precision robotic pollination systems can not only fill the gap of declining natural pollinators, but can also surpass them in efficiency and uniformity, helping to feed the fast-growing human population on Earth. This paper presents the design and ongoing development of an autonomous robot named "BrambleBee", which aims at pollinating bramble plants ...

Cytometry Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Artificial intelligence (AI) surpasses human accuracy in identifying ordinary objects, but it is still challenging for AI to be competitive in pollen grain identification. One reason for this gap is the extensive trait variation in pollen grains.

Ontogenetic shifts in olfactory rosette morphology of the sockeye salmon, Oncorhynchus nerka
Journal of Morphology, Volume 284, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023 Scanning electron microscope images of sockeye salmon olfactory rosette. Olfactory rosette size linearly increases with lamellae number throughout ontogeny. The complexity of the rosette, including the distribution of sensory and nonsensory epithelia, and the appearance of secondary lamellar folding, varies between fry and adult life stages.
