Plant reproductive development, spanning flowering, pollination, fertilization, and seed formation, is orchestrated through the integration of genetic, epigenetic, hormonal, and environmental cues.

The journal Science China Life Sciences published a study reported by Academician Hang Sun’s group from Kunming Institute of Botany, Chinese Academy of Sciences. The research team demonstrated the ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Generalist plant-pollinator interactions are prevalent in nature. Here, we untangle the role of nectar production in the visitation and pollen ...

Researchers from the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology Graduate University (OIST) have shed light on the reproductive role of 'dark matter' DNA - non-coding DNA sequences that previously ...

• Phenology, the study of seasonal timing of events in nature, plays a key role in the matching between organisms and their environment. Yet, it has been poorly integrated in traitbased descriptions ...

Plant reproduction plays a vital role in our food systems and the balance of ecosystems, yet it remains a complex process. Plants exhibit a range of reproductive strategies: some are strictly male or ...

Researchers have shed light on the reproductive role of 'dark matter' DNA - non-coding DNA sequences that previously seemed to have no function. Their findings have revealed that a specific non-coding ...

Human changes to the environment have been linked to widespread pollinator declines. New research shows that intensive land use will further decrease pollination and reproductive success of wild ...

With an increasing frequency and intensity of flooding events and an eye to capitalize on a common rice production technique, ...
