Verhuellia is a segregate lineage in Piperaceae: more evidence from flower, fruit and pollen morphology, anatomy and development [PDF]

, 2010
Background and Aims The perianthless Piperales, i.e. Saururaceae and Piperaceae, have simple reduced flowers strikingly different from the other families of the order (e.g. Aristolochiaceae).

Why flower visitation is a poor proxy for pollination : measuring single-visit pollen deposition, with implications for pollination networks and conservation [PDF]

, 2013
Funding: NERC studentship (CK - NE/H527291/1), St Andrews Scholarship (GB)Summary The relative importance of specialized and generalized plant-pollinator relationships is contentious, yet analyses usually avoid direct measures of pollinator quality ...

Duodichogamy and androdioecy in the Chinese Phyllanthaceae Bridelia tomentosa [PDF]

, 2007
Flowering plants commonly separate male and female function in time, but rarely are the two stages synchronized within and among individuals. One such temporal mating system is duodichogamy in which each plant produces two batches of male flowers that ...

An Arabidopsis flavonoid transporter is required for anther dehiscence and pollen development [PDF]

, 2010
FLOWER FLAVONOID TRANSPORTER (FFT) encodes a multidrug and toxin efflux family transporter in Arabidopsis thaliana. FFT (AtDTX35) is highly transcribed in floral tissues, the transcript being localized to epidermal guard cells, including those of the ...

Oakleaf: an S locus-linked mutation of Primula vulgaris that affects leaf and flower development [PDF]

, 2015
•In Primula vulgaris outcrossing is promoted through reciprocal herkogamy with insect-mediated cross-pollination between pin and thrum form flowers. Development of heteromorphic flowers is coordinated by genes at the S locus.

Estimation of heritability, evolvability and genetic correlations of two pollen and pistil traits involved in a sexual conflict over timing of stigma receptivity in Collinsia heterophylla (Plantaginaceae).

Annals of Botany, 2012
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Heritable genetic variation is crucial for selection to operate, yet there is a paucity of studies quantifying such variation in interactive male/female sexual traits, especially those of plants.

Evolutionary history of the grass gynoecium.

Journal of Experimental Botany, 2022
The grass family (Poaceae) includes cereal crops that provide a key food source for the human population. The food industry uses the starch deposited in the cereal grain, which develops directly from the gynoecium.
