Published in 2023 at "American journal of botany"

DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.16177

Abstract: PREMISE The relative per-flower production of ovules and pollen varies broadly with angiosperm mating systems, with outcrossing types commonly producing more pollen grains per ovule than selfing types. The evolutionary causes of this variation are… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Current Biology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.cub.2020.09.024

Abstract: Ovules are initiated in a highly regular pattern along the placenta inside the gynoecia of flowering plants. New research reveals that two separate EPFL peptide-mediated pathways functioning through a set of ERECTA-family receptors coordinate ovule… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Journal of plant physiology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.jplph.2018.08.005

Abstract: Ovule and seed development in plants has long fascinated the scientific community given the complex cell coordination implicated in these processes. These cell events are highly conserved but are not necessarily representative of all plants.… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Scientific Reports"

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-017-12988-y

Abstract: Seedless grapes are of considerable importance for the raisin and table grape industries. Previous transcriptome analyses of seed development in grape revealed that genes encoding homeobox transcription factors were differentially regulated in seedless compared with… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Scientific Reports"

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-025-00529-x

Abstract: Delayed fertilization is commonly observed in many acorn-producing Fagaceae trees, yet its underlying mechanisms and adaptive significance remain poorly understood. In recent years, a new hypothesis has been proposed suggesting that the nearly year-long delay… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society"

DOI: 10.1093/botlinnean/boaf070

Abstract: The ovule in Apocynaceae (Gentianales) is described as tenuinucellate and unitegmic. Although this type of ovule is characteristic of Asterids, their origin is widely debated due to variations within the clade, as bitegmic, bifid, or… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "Horticulture Research"

DOI: 10.1093/hr/uhad070

Abstract: Abstract Seedless grapes are increasingly popular throughout the world, and the development of seedless varieties is a major breeding goal. In this study, we demonstrate an essential role for the grapevine MADS-box gene VvMADS28 in… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Plant Physiology"

DOI: 10.1093/plphys/kiac554

Abstract: Abstract Pomegranate (Punica granatum) flowers are classified as bisexual flowers and functional male flowers. Functional male flowers have sterile pistils that show abnormal ovule development. In previous studies, we identified INNER NO OUTER (INO), CRABS… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "eLife"

DOI: 10.1101/2023.10.11.561822

Abstract: The ovules or seeds (fertilized ovules) with wings are widespread and especially important for wind dispersal. However, the earliest ovules in the Famennian of the Late Devonian are rarely known about the dispersal syndrome and… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "PLoS Genetics"

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pgen.1007230

Abstract: In most plants, the female germline starts with the differentiation of one megaspore mother cell (MMC) in each ovule that produces four megaspores through meiosis, one of which survives to become the functional megaspore (FM).… read more here.
