Scientists have developed a way to image sexual reproduction in living flowers, according to a study published today in the open-access journal eLife. The new technique, originally reported on bioRxiv ...

AMHERST – A new study reported this week suggests that flower strips offer benefits for bumblebee colony reproduction, but some plants do increase infection risk for the bees. The research was ...

Researchers have discovered a “perfectly-preserved” example of sexual reproduction in flowering plants in a 100-million-year old amber fossil. A 100 million-year-old amber fossil contains flowering ...

Think of it as assisted reproduction, but to help proliferate a flower that emits perhaps the worst aroma in the plant kingdom – that of a dead body. Among its other idiosyncrasies, the corpse flower ...

Intracellular Na⁺/H⁺ (NHX) antiporters have important roles in cellular pH and Na⁺, K⁺ homeostasis. The six Arabidopsis thaliana intracellular NHX members are divided into two groups, endosomal (NHX5 ...

Getting caught "doing it" is embarrassing enough, but imagine being frozen in flagrante delicto for a hundred million years. That's what happened to a species of flowering plant encased in amber ...

Scientists have discovered a 100-million-year-old chunk of amber that captures what they say is the oldest evidence of sexual reproduction in a flowering plant. The now-extinct but well-preserved ...
