Journal ArticleDOI
Helianthus annuus Embryogenesis: Embryo Sac Wall Projections Before and After Fertilization
TL;DR: These projections arise after the deposition of the common wall separating the two synergids, apparently as a result of Golgi activity, suggesting an altered pathway for solutes into the embryo sac.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Fine Structure of the Change from the Free-Nuclear to Cellular Condition in the Endosperm of Chickweed Stellaria media
William Newcomb,L. C. Fowke +1 more
TL;DR: Four types of wall formation occur in the endosperm of chickweed Stellaria media (L.) Cyrill: freely growing walls form at the edges of the micropylar region of the embryo sac during the early heart stage of embryogenesis, and anastomosing walls which form independently of a mitotic spindle.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Effects of 2,4,6-Trichlorophenoxyacetic Acid on Embryogenesis in Wild Carrot Tissue Cultures
TL;DR: Adventive embryogenesis in wild carrot is enhanced by the lowering of the effective auxin concentration either by removal from the medium or by the addition of 2,4,6-T (2,4-6-trichlorophenoxyacetic acid) or both.
