Effect of elevated CO2 and high temperature on seed-set and grain quality of rice [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2012 Hybrid vigour may help overcome the negative effects of climate change in rice. A popular rice hybrid (IR75217H), a heat-tolerant check (N22), and a mega-variety (IR64) were tested for tolerance of seed-set and grain quality to high-temperature stress at

Competition between anthocyanin and kaempferol glycosides biosynthesis affects pollen tube growth and seed set of Malus. [PDF]
Hortic Res, 2021 Flavonoids play important roles in regulating plant growth and development. In this study, three kaempferol 3- O -glycosides were identified and mainly accumulated in flowers but not in leaves or fruits of Malus .

Overlapping community detection using seed set expansion [PDF]
Proceedings of the 22nd ACM international conference on Information & Knowledge Management, 2013 Community detection is an important task in network analysis. A community (also referred to as a cluster) is a set of cohesive vertices that have more connections inside the set than outside. In many social and information networks, these communities naturally overlap.

Effect of Pruning Young Branches on Fruit and Seed Set in Cassava. [PDF]
Front Plant Sci, 2020 Flowering in cassava is closely linked with branching. Early-flowering genotypes branch low and abundantly. Although farmers prefer late flowering genotypes because of their erect plant architecture, their usefulness as progenitors in breeding is limited

Extreme Drought Affects Visitation and Seed Set in a Plant Species in the Central Chilean Andes Heavily Dependent on Hummingbird Pollination. [PDF]
Plants (Basel), 2020 Rising temperatures and increasing drought in Mediterranean-type climate areas are expected to affect plant–pollinator interactions, especially in plant species with specialised pollination.

How does timing of flowering affect competition for pollinators, flower visitation and seed set in an early spring grassland plant? [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2019 Knowledge on how the timing of flowering is related to plant fitness and species interactions is crucial to understand consequences of phenological shifts as they occur under climate change.

Effect of long anther dehiscence on seed set at high temperatures during flowering in rice (Oryza sativa L.). [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2019 Countermeasures that can mitigate the global warming impact on rice production are needed. The large dehiscence of anther for pollen dispersal is one trait that shows tolerance of seed set to high temperatures under the global warming.

The interplay between ovule number, pollination and resources as determinants of seed set in a modular plant. [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 Background A classical dichotomous perspective proposes that either pollination or plant resources limit seed production. However, ovule number could also be limiting when pollination results in complete ovule fertilization and there are more plant ...

Identification of regulatory networks and hub genes controlling soybean seed set and size using RNA sequencing analysis. [PDF]
J Exp Bot, 2017 Comparative RNA sequencing analyses on two soybean genotypes with contrasting seed size across seed set, growth, and early maturation stages identified key genes, modules, and regulatory networks controlling seed development.

New insights into the roles of cucumber TIR1 homologs and miR393 in regulating fruit/seed set development and leaf morphogenesis. [PDF]
BMC Plant Biol, 2017 TIR1-like proteins act as auxin receptors and play essential roles in auxin-mediated plant development processes. The number of auxin receptor family members varies among species.
