Unpredictable seed-set: a defence mechanism against seed-eating insects inProtea species (Proteaceae)

Oecologia, 1994
Extent of pre-dispersal seed destruction by insects and seed survival were measured for variousProtea species (Proteaceae) and related to seed-set, variation in seed-set, the percentage of barren infructescences and infructescence age. The hypothesis that low and variable seed-set would act as a defence mechanism against insect seed predators was ...

Investigations into seed setting in cocksfoot seed crops in New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, 1960
Summary Surveys in cocksfoot seed producing districts of the South Island showed that seed-setting in cocksfoot was very variable. A wide range of thrips infestation in the cocksfoot florets was found, usually greater in older stands. The thrips found was identified as Chirothrips pallidicornis Priesner.

A Fruit-setting Hormone from Apple Seeds

Nature, 1946
IN the apple, fruit size and shape are known to be closely correlated with the number and position of the fertile seeds, an observation which suggests that the developing seed may be the source of a hormone which initiates and controls the growth of the fruit.
