"Carpelloid stamens" in Lotus sp.

Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014
The anatomy and cytology of flower buds in which one or two stamens underwent modifications of various degree, termed in the teratological terminology "carpelloid stamens" were analysed in <em>Lotus</em>. It is presumed that these disturbances were due to the hybrid character of the studied plants.

The pistil as a traffic light: Yellow‐to‐red color change likely influences pollinator visitation patterns in Saxifraga fortunei (Saxifragaceae)

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Flowers can communicate reproductive status to pollinators through visual cues. In Saxifraga fortunei, pistils often changed from yellow to red after pollination, and hoverflies and honeybees preferentially visited flowers with yellow pistils. This pattern suggests that a post‐pollination color shift confined to the pistil can reduce revisits to ...

Multifaceted obscurity of Thismia abei (Thismiaceae): A fairy lantern with the protologue long disregarded in practice

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Tiny, leafless fairy lanterns are easily overlooked on the forest floor. Thismia abei, endemic to Japan, persists in small, unstable populations and is listed nationally as Critically Endangered. Our recent work has revealed another, less obvious form of obscurity.

Transcriptome Remodeling in Arabidopsis: A Response to Heterologous Poplar MSL-lncRNAs Overexpression

Plants
Stamens are vital reproductive organs in angiosperms, essential for plant growth, reproduction, and development. The genetic regulation and molecular mechanisms underlying stamen development are, however, complex and varied among different plant species.

Functional analysis of the two Brassica AP3 genes involved in apetalous and stamen carpelloid phenotypes.

PLoS ONE, 2011
The Arabidopsis homeotic genes APETALA3 (AP3) and PISTILLATA (PI) are B genes which encode MADS-box transcription factors and specify petal and stamen identities. In the current study, the stamen carpelloid (SC) mutants, HGMS and AMS, of B.

Impact of small‐scale gravity waves on tracer transport

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We extend a gravity wave (GW) parametrization to calculate the tracer transport due to the GW–Stokes drift and next‐order effects, where the approach is validated by comparing coarse‐resolution simulations with parametrized GWs to high‐resolution, wave‐resolving reference simulations.

Advanced design and application for viologen‐based redox devices with customizable functionalities

Responsive Materials, EarlyView.
This review examines viologen‐based materials with customizable functionalities achieved through molecular engineering strategies such as side‐chain modification and composite formation. It emphasizes their utility in electrochromic devices, multicolor displays, and energy storage, while discussing stability challenges and outlining future development ...

Monitoring the effects of ovariectomy on seasonal movement behavior in suburban female white‐tailed deer using internet of things‐enabled devices

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Abundant deer populations often cause conflicts in suburban communities, yet traditional population reduction methods, such as controlled hunting, can be challenging to implement. Fertility control, specifically through ovariectomy, can limit reproduction and reduce populations in certain settings, but its effect on movement behavior remains poorly ...

‘I like to dance with the flowers!’: Exploring the possibilities for biodiverse futures in an urban forest school

Children &Society, EarlyView.
Abstract This article explores the ways in which ‘forest school’, an educational approach where children engage in creative and play based activities in a ‘natural’ environment, can contribute towards Sustainable Development Goal 15 (SDG 15) by promoting sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems and by helping address biodiversity loss. Drawing on data

Division of labour between dimorphic stamens in Melastoma candidum (Melastomataceae): Role of stamen strength in the biomechanics of pollination

Journal of Pollination Ecology
The division of labour hypothesis suggests that plants exhibiting heteranthery utilise different stamen types for distinct purposes; feeding stamens provide pollen as a reward for pollinators, whereas pollinating stamens ensure successful reproduction ...
