Reproduction Mode in Hypericum and its Consequences
نویسندگان
چکیده
Several modes of reproduction were described in the genus Hypericum. Besides obligate sexuality, irregularities in meiosis, polyembryony and pseudogamous apomixis were noticed in various taxa of the genus. This review summarizes previous knowledge and also analyses evolutionary consequences of different breeding systems and possible employment of particular reproductive modes for breeding in the genus Hypericum. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Evolution of cryptic gene pools in Hypericum perforatum: the influence of reproductive system and gene flow.
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Hypericum perforatum (St. John's wort) is a widespread Eurasian perennial plant species with remarkable variation in its morphology, ploidy and breeding system, which ranges from sex to apomixis. Here, hypotheses on the evolutionary origin of St. John's wort are tested and contrasted with the subsequent history of interspecific gene flow. METHODS Extensive field collection...

Unlike sexual reproduction, apomixis encompasses a number of reproductive strategies, which permit maternal genome inheritance without genetic recombination and syngamy. The key biological features of apomixis are the circumvention of meiosis (i.e., apomeiosis), the differentiation of unreduced embryo sacs and egg cells, and their autonomous development in functional embryos through parthenogen...

Skin drug delivery systems with controlled release are suitable means for the local transfer of pharmaceutical compounds to the damaged and healthy layers of skin. Nanofibrous membrane prepares uniform moisture in the wound environment with less accumulation of fluid secretion due to its variable pore size. Electrospinning takes advantage of using herbal extracts in the form of electrospun nano...
