Seed Micromorphology of Eleven Species of Pleione (Orchidaceae).
The micromorphological characteristics of the seeds of 11 species of Pleione have been studied, both qualitatively and quantitatively, to establish whether they are useful for systematic studies of the genus. The quantitative characteristics include seed length (0.237–0.626 μm), seed width (0.053–0.133 μm), seed length/width ratio (2.631–7.279), seed ridge thickness (1.4...Wang, Zhongxuan ; Zhang, Hao ; Qin, Si ; You, Le ; Zhai, Junwen …

Mechanistic insights derived from re-establishment of desiccation tolerance in germinating xerophytic seeds: Caragana korshinskii as an example.
Germplasm conservation strongly depends on the desiccation tolerance (DT) of seeds. Xerophytic seeds have strong desiccation resistance, which makes them excellent models to study DT. Although some experimental strategies have been applied previously, most methods are difficult to apply to xerophytic seeds. In this review, we attempted to synthesize current...Peng, Long ; Huang, Xu ; Qi, Manyao ; Pritchard, Hugh W. ; Xue, Hua

The biosecurity risks of seeds in a botanic garden context.
Seeds present a naturally occurring package of germplasm with ideal attributes for collection, distribution and, in the case of orthodox seed, long term storage. From a phytosanitary perspective seeds are often considered a relatively low-risk option for movement of germplasm across borders. Most published data are concerned with diseases of...Redstone, Sara ; Fox, Adrian
