TLDR
Initiation and development of pistillate flowers in Actinidia chinensis Planch, cultivar ‘Hayward’ (kiwifruit, Chinese gooseberry) was followed using light and scanning electron microscopy and results indicate that dormant buds contain undifferentiated primordia in the leaf axils.

Mannan transglycosylase: a novel enzyme activity in cell walls of higher plants.

Roswitha Schröder, +3 more
- 29 Apr 2004 - 
TL;DR: Mannan transglycosylase activity in tomato skin and outer pericarp is specific for mannan-based plant polysaccharides, including GGM, galactomannan, glucomannan and mannan, and may both be involved in remodelling and refining the cellulose framework in developmental processes throughout the life of a plant.
