Evolution and functional ecology of the embryo to seed size ratio.
Continuous variation exists in the ratio of embryo to nutritive tissues of Angiosperms. Embryo to seed size ratio ranges from seeds dispersed with an embryo consisting of a clump of cells embedded in copious endosperm, e.g. several Ranunculaceae, to seeds containing only an embryo and no nutritive tissue, e.g. many...Vandelook, Filip ; Dickie, John B. ; Carta, Angelino

Wild bananas detect forest gaps.
Banana crop wild relatives (CWR) grow in tropical to sub-tropical Asia and Pacific forest. They take advantage of forest disturbances to form patches in the forest or on the edges of cleared land. We investigate the mechanism by which seeds from banana CWRs are able to detect gaps and germinate...Kallow, Simon ; Davies, Rachael ; Janssens, Steven B. ; Vandelook, Filip ; Panis, Bart …
