University of Maryland researchers discovered the gene that makes a rare form of wheat grow three ovaries per flower instead of one. Since each ovary can potentially develop into a grain of wheat, the ...

A cutting-edge study has uncovered the complex hormonal and genetic interactions that dictate the seasonal flowering cycle of Cymbidium sinense, the Chinese orchid. This research sheds light on the ...

Flower development and sex determination in cucurbits represent a finely tuned interplay between hormonal regulation, transcriptional networks and genetic diversity. Ethylene emerges as a pivotal ...

During the last 15 years enormous progress had been made in understanding the genetic and molecular regulation of flower development. The classical A-B-C model, which describes how the activities of ...

Researchers from Nara Institute of Science and Technology and Nanjing University find that KNUCKLES, a small multi-functional protein, supports the correct timing of floral development for the proper ...

Trichomes are specific epidermal cells often functional in protection, seed dispersal and, less frequently, development. A MIXTA-like MYB transcription factor from cotton, GhMYBML10, has been shown to ...
