25 sty 2023 · Flowering plants have evolved numerous intraspecific and interspecific prezygotic reproductive barriers to prevent production of unfavourable offspring1.
11 cze 2004 · In this review, we (1) survey recent discoveries of pollen and stigma functions both before and after they make contact, and (2) address the great diversity in pollen and stigma structures across taxa, focusing on how they accomplish key tasks in pollination.
28 cze 2008 · Siphonogamy, the delivery of nonmotile sperm to the egg via a pollen tube, was a key innovation that allowed flowering plants (angiosperms) to carry out sexual reproduction on land without the need for water. This process begins with a pollen grain (male gametophyte) alighting on and adhering to the stigma of a flower.
20 maj 2023 · In higher plants, anther development and pollen-stigma interaction require complex cell–cell communications, and various peptide/RLK signaling play essential roles in these processes.
The angiosperm stigma is an efficient structure with both morphological and physiological adaptations that enable pollen capture, hydration and germination. The stigma surface may play a vital part in controlling interspecific hybridization and in regulating compatibility relationships within species. The structural and physiological features ...
28 maj 2018 · New evidence reveals how two transcription factors play a pivotal role in controlling stigma lifespan by regulating developmental programmed cell death in this tissue to terminate pollen...
In this review, we (a) discuss the hypotheses proposed for the adap-tive value of TSS, (b) examine the phylogenetic dis-tribution of TSS in angiosperms, and (c) investigate associations between TSS and plant reproductive traits that we predicted to be relevant to the evolution of the phenomenon.
