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.
1 sty 2017 · Animal-pollinated plants display a multiplicity of structural adaptations that function to promote effective cross-pollen dispersal and reduce pollen wastage, especially on incompatible stigmas.
28 cze 2008 · Summary. 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.
The brassica MIP-MOD gene encodes a functional water channel that is expressed in the stigma epidermis. Plant Mol Biol. 2001 Jan;45(1):51–62. doi: 10.1023/a:1006428007826. [ DOI ] [ PubMed ] [ Google Scholar ]
25 sty 2023 · A signalling mechanism ensuring intraspecies and interspecies reproductive barriers in flowering plants is uncovered.
This chapter aims to show the range of morphological variation in stigma types found throughout the angiosperms, to enable classification of stigmata into the major recognized groups, and to indicate the relationship between structure and function.
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.
