Sensitive Stamens in Portulaca
The American Naturalist, 1873 Two years ago my attention was first called to the sensitiveness of the stamens of Portulaca grandiflora, by observing a peculiar motion in them, while a small wild bee was engaged in gathering honey, and perhaps pollen, from the flowers. Upon trial I found that I could, by touching the stamens, make them move through quite considerable arcs of circles.

Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, EarlyView.In this study, a facile approach for fabricating washable and antibacterial PS/PU fibrous sponges by direct electrospinning is demonstrated. The obtained fiber sponge exhibits lightweight (3.89 mg cm−3), significant mechanical durability, warmth retention performance (23.77 mW m−¹ K−¹), and 98.9% antibacterial efficiency after 10 washing cycles, making

A regulatory network for coordinated flower maturation. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2012 For self-pollinating plants to reproduce, male and female organ development must be coordinated as flowers mature. The Arabidopsis transcription factors AUXIN RESPONSE FACTOR 6 (ARF6) and ARF8 regulate this complex process by promoting petal expansion ...

New species and new records in Agarista (Ericaceae) from the Peruvian Andes
Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Agarista (Ericaceae) is currently represented in Peru by three species. Here, we update this number to five, adding new taxa based on the recognition of a taxonomic novelty and new records. The new species Agarista eugeniifolia differs from all congeneric species by an abaxially sulcate midvein.

Floral organ transcriptome in Camellia sasanqua provided insight into stamen petaloid
BMC Plant Biology, 2022 Background The cultivated Camellia sasanqua forms a divergent double flower pattern, and the stamen petaloid is a vital factor in the phenomenon. However, the regulation mechanism remains largely unclear.

Molecular phylogenetics of Melastomataceae and Memecylaceae [PDF]
, 2001 Melastomataceae are among the most abundant and diversified groups of plants throughout the tropics, but their intrafamily relationships and morphological evolution are poorly understood. Here we report the results of parsimony and maximum likelihood (ML)

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.The new species Boswellia oropedionis Thulin and M.H.Weber is described, illustrated by photographs and mapped. This tree is only known from a small population growing on level limestone on the Qatariyah plateau in southern Socotra and is the twelfth endemic species of Boswellia from the Socotra archipelago. It differs from B.
