Phylogenetic trends in TZ staining analysis of six deep dormancy seeds.
The assessment of seed quality and physiological potential is essential in seed production and crop breeding. In the process of rapid detection of seed viability using tetrazolium (TZ) staining, it is necessary to spend a lot of labour and material resources to explore the pretreatment and staining methods of hard...Peng, Chen Yin ; Wu, Yu ; Huang, Wen Hui ; Deng, Zhi Yun ; Sun, Xiao Rui …

Predicting the potential threat of Casuarina equisetifolia to three endemic plant species on the Turks and Caicos Islands.
Invasive species are one of the main threats to the loss of global biodiversity. Controlling such species requires a high input of effort and resources and therefore it is important to focus control on areas that will maximize gains for conservation. We present a spatial modelling approach that will help... -

Phylogenetic placement and reappraisal of Diorygma karnatakense including the new synonym, Diorygma dandeliense, from Maharashtra, India.
This study re-examined the status of species of Eshw. known from the Western Ghats using an integrative taxonomy approach that includes morphological and chemical data, as well as multigene phylogenetic analyses. Prior to this work, the two species and were distinguished primarily on lirellae morphology (branching pattern) and the number... -

Early Events in Monocot Evolution.
Tracing the evolution of one of the most ancient major branches of flowering plants, this is a wide-ranging survey of state-of-the-art research on the early clades of the monocot phylogenetic tree. It explores a series of broad but linked themes, providing for the first time a detailed and coherent view...Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew

Seed dormancy concepts in orchids: Dendrobium cruentum as a model species.
Generally, orchids produce dust-like seeds in which endosperm reduction and embryo undifferentiation represent a derived state shared with species in about 11 other plant families. Orchid seeds are proposed to have a special kind of morphological or morphophysiological dormancy. We test this proposition, overcoming several design limitations of earlier studies,...Prasongsom, Sasikarn ; Thammasiri, Kanchit ; Pritchard, Hugh W.
