Solanum carolinense is a perennial shrubby weed. In this species, andromonoecy functional through heterostyly represented by the production of long, semi-long, medium, & short-styled flower types and another type lacking style stigma completely. All plants produce long-styled flowers while all individuals do not other types. The long- semi-long-styled are functionally co-sexual fruit female...

Ridsdalea philippinensis ( Rubiaceae ), a new species from the karst forest in El Nido (Palawan, Philippines), is described and illustrated. It unique among Malesian having corolla tube that distinctly inflated at apex, character state also displayed by R. sootepensis thailandica Laos Thailand. Amongst others, , however, differs both of these smaller flowers anthers do not emerge tube. An updat...

Lipid transfer proteins (LTPs) are small secretory proteins in plants with defined lipid-binding structures for possible lipid exocytosis. Special groups of LTPs unique to the anther tapetum are abundant, but their functions are unclear. We studied a special group of LTPs, type III LTPs, in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana). Their transcripts were restricted to the anther tapetum, with levels ...

This study aimed to establish a compelling approach for inducing embryogenesis through in vitro anther culture Scarlet eggplant (Solanum aethiopicum L.), the most consumed and popular among indigenous vegetables on African continent. While androgenesis has been favorably employed brinjal melongena L.) breeding, there no attempt induce large germplasm of its relative, Solanum aethiopicum. In two...

Abstract The variability of metric traits has been studied in 20 Kazakhstan populations three Nitraria species ( N. schoberi L., sibirica Pall., and komarovii Iljin & Lava ex Bobrov). According to the results, differs from small leaves, fruits, seeds, as well structural features inflorescences flowers. is characterized by a greater number flowers per inflorescence (25–66 on average) than (1...

Yield reduction caused by late application of glyphosate to glyphosate-resistant cotton (Gossypium hirsutum; GRC) expressing CP4 5-enol-pyruvylshikmate-3-P synthase under the cauliflower mosaic virus-35S promoter has been attributed to male sterility. This study was aimed to elucidate the factors and mechanisms involved in this phenomenon. Western and tissue-print blots demonstrated a reduced e...

PREMISE Flowering plants with poricidal anthers are commonly visited by buzzing bees, which vibrate flowers to extract pollen. However, not all flower visitors in fact pollinators, and features such as body size duration of visits important factors determining pollination effectiveness. We tested whether bee-to-flower relationships predict the effectiveness a buzz-pollinated species (Chamaecris...
