Imprinting and seed development.

Imprinted genes are expressed predominantly from one allele in a parent-of-origin–specific manner. The endosperm, a seed tissue that mediates the transfer of nutrients from the maternal parent to the embryo, is an important site of imprinting in flowering plants. Imprinted genes have been identified in maize and Arabidopsis thaliana, but crosses in a variety of species suggest that the effect o...

Seed orchards in development.

This paper reviews the role of seed orchards as output systems for genetic improvement programs. In this paper, technological changes since the 1950s are examined, with emphasis on recent developments. The need to equate the type of seed orchard to the type of forestry practiced is recognized, as is the significance of the relationship between seed orchards and other output systems for genetica...

Combinatorial Networks Regulating Seed Development and Seed Filling

Seeds offer plants a unique opportunity to suspend their life cycles in a desiccated state. This enables them to endure adverse environmental conditions and then resume growth by using endogenous storage products when more favorable conditions develop. Seed development is pivotal to the reproductive success of flowering plants (Angiosperms). It is initiated by the process of double fertilizatio...

Maternal control of seed development.

Maternal control of higher plant seed development is likely to involve female sporophytic as well as female gametophytic genes. While numerous female sporophytic mutants control the production of the ovule and the embryo sac true maternal effect mutations affecting embryo and endosperm development are rare in plants. A new class of female gametophytic mutants has been isolated that controls aut...

Update on Legume Seed Development Using Genomics to Study Legume Seed Development

Seeds are essential for flowering plant reproduction because they protect, nourish, and contain the developing embryo that represents the next sporophytic generation. In addition, seeds contain energy resources that sustain the young sporophyte during germination before photosynthesis begins. In legumes, food reserves stored in embryonic cotyledons make seeds important as a food source for both...
