Life cycle of the moss,Physcomitrella patens, in culture
Paula A. Collier,Karen W. Hughes +1 more
TL;DR: A method employing tissue culture techniques for growth of mosses is described, allowing for the completion of the sexual life cycle of the mossPhyscomitrella patens (Hedw.) BSG under controlled conditions in a two month period.
Journal ArticleDOI
The tropical Polyporus tricholoma (Polyporaceae) — Taxonomy, phylogeny, and the development of methods to detect cryptic species
TL;DR: Molecular evidence supports the existence of a close relative in Australia and Sequencing, restriction enzyme digestion, and specific primers targeting the ITS region of nuclear ribosomal DNA could only partly be used for detecting intercompatibility groups.
Journal ArticleDOI
The delimitation of Flammulina fennae
TL;DR: Multivariate morphometric analyses of micromorphological characters measured on 35 specimens of Flammulina fennae and related species show that only a combination of spore dimensions and ixohyphidia characters are suitable for delimitation of this species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reciprocal differences in intraspecific crosses of tobacco result from embryo death
TL;DR: In another study, the authors showed that growing tetraploid tobacco plants from cell lines derived from cultured cell lines (TC) can increase the yield of F1 plants from 2% to as much as 25% indicating that embryo rescue is possible.
Journal ArticleDOI
Patterns of heterosis and crossing barriers resulting from increasing genetic distance between populations of theMimulus luteus complex
TL;DR: In this article, the ability of several populations of the Mimulus luteas complex to intercross was compared with an estimate of genetic divergence of the populations derived from a Prim network based on 134 traits.
