Researchers have identified a genetic sequence that is essential for plant reproduction. As this region is found in all plant species, it is expected to contribute to future crossbreeding initiatives ...

DFG Research Unit “Innovation and Coevolution in Plant Sexual Reproduction” (ICIPS) will be funded for another four years ...

In the flowering plant world, reproduction means an intricate succession of events. It begins when a pollen grain that carries the sperm cells lands on the top of the pistil, the female reproductive ...

We studied the effects of environmental factors on the ability to compensate for simulated herbivory in an annual (Urtica urens) and two perennial (U. dioica subspp. dioica and sondenii) nettle ...

Flowering plants naturally know when they need to spare or perish their cells. Scientists have now examined the ovules of plant cells to reveal a novel cell-elimination system based on an unusual cell ...

Plant reproduction is highly complex and variable across the kingdom. The emergence of sexual reproduction has contributed to increase plant genetic diversity and enabled the colonisation of new ...

*Plants That Have No Flowers or Seeds* (1967) is an 11-minute educational film produced by Coronet. It explores examples of non-flowering, seedless plants, such as ferns, mosses, and fungi, explaining ...

The ASARI Institute at Mohammed VI Polytechnic University (UM6P) is seeking a highly motivated and skilled Postdoctoral Fellow in Plant Nutrition and Fertilization. The successful candidate will ...

A research group led by Associate Professor Ryushiro Kasahara at Nagoya University in Japan, identified a genetic sequence in thale cress that is essential for plant reproduction. As this region is ...

This news release is available in Japanese. Nagoya, Japan - Flowering plants naturally know when they need to spare or perish their cells. In a new study reported in Cell, an international group of ...
