Female parthenogenetic apomixis and androsporogenetic parthenogenesis in embryonal cells of Araucaria angustifolia : interpolation of progenesis and asexual heterospory in an artificial sporangium

TL;DR: Female parthenogenetic apomixis (fPA), androsporogenetic parthenogenesis (mAP) and progenesis were demonstrated using embryonal initials of Araucaria angustifolia in scaled-up cell suspensions passing through a single-cell bottleneck in darkness and in an artificial sporangium (AS).

Evaluation of Phytoremediation Potential of Pteris vittata L. on Arsenic Contaminated Soil Using Allium cepa Bioassay

TL;DR: In this paper, the utility of Allium cepa based bioassays in evaluating the arsenic toxicity and remediation potential of Pteris vittata on contaminated soil of Lakhimpur-Kheri district was assessed.

Comparative Karyomorphology and DNA Estimation Studies in Ginger Cultivars (Zingiber officinale Rosc.)

TL;DR: DNA content of these two cultivars were highly varied and a correlation could be obtained between the amount of 4C DNA and the total chromosome length and a relation between the 4C nuclear DNA content and thetotal chromosome length were established.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparative evaluation of promutagens o-PDA, m-PDA and MH for genotoxic response in root cells of Allium cepa L.

TL;DR: The study identifies the genotoxic potential and re-establishes the fact that Allium cepa could ideally be used for evaluation of chromosome aberration and DNA damage.

Numeros cromosomicos de cuatro especies de costus (costaceae), una de calathea, una de maranta y una de stromanthe (marantaceae)

TL;DR: Observations on Costus lead us to consider the probable existence of a polyploid series, with the recently described C. dirzoi being triploid.
