The evolution of photosynthesis is an important feature of mixotrophic plants. Previous inferences proposed that mixotrophic taxa tend to retain most genes relating to photosynthetic functions but vary in plastid gene content. However, no s...
Recent amplification of Osr4 LTR-retrotransposon caused rice D1 gene mutation and dwarf phenotype [0.03%]
水稻D1基因突变和矮化表型由Osr4LTR反转录转座子近期扩增引起
Jie Chen,Hong Zhao,Xiujuan Zheng et al.
Jie Chen et al.
A novel rice d1 mutant was identified using map-based cloning and comparative analysis of known d1 mutants. The mutant (d1-a) shows a mild dwarf trait, which differs only slightly from the wildtype in plant height at the tillering stage. Th...

The concept of eco-civilisation refers to the need for human affairs to be contained within the limits set by nature. Plants play such fundamental roles in the functioning of ecosystems and economies that due attention must be given to them...
Levels of rhizome endophytic fungi fluctuate in Paris polyphylla var. yunnanensi s as plants age [0.03%]

Paris polyphylla var. yunnanensis is an important medicinal plant with abundant saponins that are widely used in the pharmaceuticals industry. It is unclear why the levels of active ingredients increase as these plants age. We speculated th...
Floral characteristics and pollination ecology of Manglietia ventii (Magnoliaceae), a plant species with extremely small populations (PSESP) endemic to South Yunnan of China [0.03%]
中国云南南部特有极小种群植物含笑金叶子(Manglietia ventii)的花部特征和传粉生态学研究
Bin Wang,Gao Chen,Congren Li et al.
Bin Wang et al.
Manglietia ventii is a highly endangered plant species endemic to Yunnan province in China, where there are only five known small populations. Despite abundant flowering there is very low fruit and seed set, and very few seedlings in natura...
Genetic structure and demographic history of Cycas chenii (Cycadaceae), an endangered species with extremely small populations [0.03%]
极度小种群孑遗植物 Caycas chenii 的遗传结构和谱系 demographic 分析
