Transcriptional Analysis Reveals the Differences in Response of Floral Buds to Boron Deficiency Between Two Contrasting Brassica napus Varieties [PDF]

open access: yesPlants
Boron (B) is an essential micronutrient for the development of crops, and its reproductive stage is particularly sensitive to B deficiency. Brassica napus L., as an important oil-crop species, is extremely vulnerable to B deficiency.

Pollen transfer efficiency in Erica depends on type of pollinator. [PDF]

open access: yesPhytoKeys
Pollen transfer efficiency (PTE; the proportion of pollen removed from flowers that reaches conspecific stigmas) is expected to vary with the type of pollinator and flower morphology, and to influence male siring success.

Ssr-based molecular profiling of selected donors of wide compatibility, elongated uppermost internode, stigma exsertion and submergence tolerance traits and parental lines of commercial rice (o. Sativa l.) Hybrids [PDF]

open access: green, 2015
Molecular breeding plays an important role in sustainable agriculture development. Hybrid rice technology aims to increase the yield potential of rice beyond the level of inbred high-yielding varieties (HYVs) by exploiting the phenomenon of hybrid vigour

Molecular phylogeny and evolution of inflorescence types in Eperua

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, Volume 110, Issue 10, October 2023., 2023
Abstract Premise The Amazonian hyperdominant genus Eperua (Fabaceae) currently holds 20 described species and has two strongly different inflorescence and flower types, with corresponding different pollination syndrome. The evolution of these vastly different inflorescence types within this genus was unknown and the main topic in this study. Methods We

Natural hybridization between wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and its wild relatives Aegilops geniculata Roth and Aegilops triuncialis L.

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 79, Issue 6, Page 2247-2254, June 2023., 2023
In this study we quantified the natural hybridization under field conditions between wheat (Triticum aestivum) and two species of the wild relative Aegilops genus, A. geniculata and A. triuncialis, which are very abundant in the Mediterranean area. Abstract BACKGROUND Cultivated bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) spontaneously hybridizes with wild ...

Range‐wide floral trait variation reflects shifts in pollinator assemblages, consistent with pollinator‐mediated divergence despite generalized visitation

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2023, Issue 6, June 2023., 2023
Floral trait evolution mediated by pollinators is important in the diversification of flowering plants, yet few studies have demonstrated the range‐wide geographic variation in both floral traits and pollinators which represents a predicted precursor for pollinator‐mediated speciation.

Evolutionary convergence on hummingbird pollination in Neotropical Costus provides insight into the causes of pollinator shifts

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 236, Issue 4, Page 1572-1583, November 2022., 2022
Summary The evolution of hummingbird pollination is common across angiosperms throughout the Americas, presenting an opportunity to examine convergence in both traits and environments to better understand how complex phenotypes arise. Here we examine independent shifts from bee to hummingbird pollination in the Neotropical spiral gingers (Costus) and ...
