Because plants are also capable of asexual reproduction, it’s common to use cuttings to develop cultivars that are clones of a dioecious, male flowering plant.

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 ...

Self-Incompatibility Mechanisms in Plant Reproduction Publication Trend The graph below shows the total number of publications each year in Self-Incompatibility Mechanisms in Plant Reproduction.

This Scientific Reports Collection considers original research on asexual reproduction strategies in plants, from studies on their genetic regulation and evolution throughout plant lineages, to ...

Tomato plants possess a sophisticated system to protect themselves against herbivores: the signaling peptide Systemin ...

Plant reproduction occurs in the anthers and ovaries of developing flowers, resulting in the formation of pollen and an embryo sac that holds male and female germ cells.

Flowering strips—pollinator-friendly rows of plants that increase foraging habitat for bees—can help offset pollinator decline but may also bring risks of higher pathogen infection rates for ...

A research group led by Nagoya University 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 ...
