Biologists provide evidence for an alternative genetic mechanism that can lead to plants becoming self-pollinators. There are flowering plants that have the ability to self-pollinate, meaning that ...
Saving seed is a selective process — you don’t need to save seed from every plant in your garden. Monitoring blossom times, ...
Many flowering plants prevent inbreeding and increase genetic diversity by a process called self-incompatibility, in which pollination fails to set seed if the pollen is identified as its own by the ...
Olive reproductive biology is marked by a complex interplay between morphological adaptations and genetic self-incompatibility systems, which collectively mediate the process of wind pollination. The ...
This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract The study was conducted to identify the self-incompatibility mechanism in Eucalyptus globulus ssp. globulus. Controlled self-and ...
Time-lapse of growing tomatillo from seed to plant. It was growing strong and start blooming around 30th day onward. The ...
Background and aims The transition from outcrossing to selfing is a repeated pattern in angiosperm diversification and according to general theory this transition should occur quickly and mixed ...
Honeybees, which are not native to the United States, may be outcompeting native bees for pollen. Ed Reschke via Getty Images Honeybees are often heralded as a symbol of biodiversity and a key species ...
Garden columnist Dan Gill answers readers' questions each week. To send a question, email Gill at gnogardening@agcenter.lsu.edu. I was wondering if you could provide me with a list of which fruit ...
There are flowering plants that have the ability to self-pollinate, meaning that they can fertilise themselves without a partner. A biological advantage of self-pollination, also known as “selfing”, ...
