Dimorphic enantiostyly and its function for pollination by carpenter bees in a pollen‐rewarding Caribbean bloodwort

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Flowers that present their anthers and stigma in close proximity can achieve precise animal‐mediated pollen transfer, but risk self‐pollination. One evolutionary solution is reciprocal herkogamy. Reciprocity of anther and style positions among different plants (i.e., a genetic dimorphism) is common in distylous plants, but very rare in

Comprehensive transcriptome analyses of different Crocus flower tissues uncover genes involved in crocin biosynthesis

open access: yesBiologia Plantarum, 2020
The stigma of Crocus sativus is used in traditional Chinese medicine and has drawn attention as a rich source of crocin, a compound with a reported activity that counters various cancers, depression, and cardiovascular diseases. However, our knowledge of

Phylogenomics, ecomorphological evolution, and historical biogeography in Deuterocohnia (Bromeliaceae: Pitcairnioideae)

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Species of Deuterocohnia (17 spp.) show extraordinary variation in elevation (0–3900 m a.s.l.) and growth forms, and many have narrow geographic distributions in the west‐central Andes and the Peru‐Chile coast. Previous research using few plastid and nuclear loci failed to produce well‐resolved or supported phylogenies.

Auxin Regulation of Late Stamen Development [PDF]

open access: yesThe Plant Cell, 2008
Pollination in self-fertilizing plants depends on the proper timing of filament elongation, anther dehiscence, and pollen maturation so that pollen grains capable of germination are deposited on the stigma surface. Auxin is known to be necessary for stamen development. For example, Cheng et al.

Fibers as Oleogelators: Innovations, Applications, and Future Prospects in Structured Lipid Systems

open access: yesJournal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.
Schematic overview of fiber‐based oleogelation mechanisms, processing routes, and food applications highlighting particulate/capillary structuring, polymer entanglement, and emulsion‐templated approaches. ABSTRACT Oleogels, structured oil systems created with low levels of gelators‐enables solid fat functionality while preserving the underlying liquid ...

Language-Based Image Editing with Recurrent Attentive Models

open access: yes, 2018
We investigate the problem of Language-Based Image Editing (LBIE). Given a source image and a natural language description, we want to generate a target image by editing the source image based on the description.

Droplet deformation and breakup in shear flow of air

open access: yes, 2020
The deformation and breakup of droplets in air flows is important in many applications of spray and atomization processes. However, the shear effect of airflow has never been reported.
