Abstract: Arabidopsis AGAMOUS (AG) has roles in specifying reproductive organ (stamens and carpels) identity, floral meristem determinacy, and repression of A-function. To investigate possible roles of AG orthologous genes in gymnosperm species and evolution of C… read more here.

Abstract: The cortex-to-stele ratio (CSR), as it increases from thin- to thick-root species in angiosperms, is theorised to effectively reflect a compensation for the ‘lag’ of absorption behind transportation. But it is still not known if… read more here.
