Expressions of ECE-CYC2 clade genes relating to abortion of both dorsal and ventral stamens in Opithandra (Gesneriaceae).

5 Oct 2009 BACKGROUND: ECE-CYC2 clade genes known in patterning floral dorsoventral asymmetry (zygomorphy) in Antirrhinum majus are conserved in the dorsal identity function including arresting the dorsal stamen. However, it remains uncertain whether the same ... Read more...

Signals and prepatterns: new insights into organ polarity in plants.

30 Aug 2009 The flattening of leaves results from the interaction between upper (adaxial) and lower (abaxial) domains in the developing primordium. These domains are specified by conserved, overlapping genetic pathways involving several distinct transcription ... Read more...

Phytotoxic effects of cyanobacteria extract on Lemna minor and Myriophyllum spicatum phyto-tolerance and superoxide dismutase activity.

30 May 2009 The research on the effects of microcystins on aquatic plants has increased. Some aquatic plants have some tolerance to microcystins but the mechanism of the tolerance is still unknown. In this experiment, we used microcystins of different ... Read more...

Technical information about 'Angiosperms'

Definition: Any member of the more than 250,000 species of flowering plants. Angiosperms are often differentiated from GYMNOSPERMS by their production of seeds within a closed chamber (OVARY, PLANT). The Angiosperms division is composed of two classes, the monocotyledons (Liliopsida) and dicotyledons (Magnoliopsida).
