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 ...
Most plants allow fungal microorganisms to enter their root cells and provide them with carbohydrates in exchange for a ...
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 ...
The peptide, named NON-DEFENSIN PEPTIDE ATTRACTANT 1 (NPA1), represents the first non-defensin-type attractant identified in dicots and expands the known diversity of fertilization cues in flowering ...
Plants are usually seen as stationary life forms, quietly supporting environments. But plant communities and populations are ...
Rapid alkalinization factors (RALFs) are required for pollen tube germination and elongation, an essential process in plant fertilization. But their role in monocot plants remains unexplored.
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 ...
