Comparative Embryology of Angiosperms

P. S. Srivastava, +3 more
TL;DR: Besides students and research workers interested in angiospermembyology, taxonomists, plant breeders, agriculturists, andhorticulturists will also find much useful information in this treatise.
BookDOI

Evolution and function of heterostyly

Spencer C. H. Barrett
TL;DR: A century of research on heterostylous plants has passed since the publication of Charles Darwin's book "The Different Forms of Flowers on Plants of the Same Species" in 1877, and this book offers a detailed account of the subject.
Book ChapterDOI

Pollen-Pistil Interactions

R. B. Knox
TL;DR: The pollination process is susceptible to modification to permit the introduction of desirable genes, for example, for disease resistance, from wild species into crop plants in order to maximize fertilization and hence crop production.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pistil strategies controlling pollen tube growth

Maria Herrero, +1 more
- 01 Jan 1996 - 
TL;DR: The evidence that is accumulating for both support and constraint of pollen tube growth by the pistil is examined and the benefits of this dual system are discussed.
Book ChapterDOI

Ovarian and other late-acting self-incompatibility systems

Tammy L. Sage, +2 more
TL;DR: Although OSI systems have been reported to occur primarily in woody species, incompatible pollen tube arrest within the ovary has now been reported for a number of herbaceous monocotyledonous and dicotylingonous species as well (Seavey and Bawa 1986).

THE USE OF LEAD CITRATE AT HIGH pH AS AN ELECTRON-OPAQUE STAIN IN ELECTRON MICROSCOPY

Edward S. Reynolds
- 01 Apr 1963 - 
TL;DR: The stain reported here differs from previous alkaline lead stains in that the chelating agent, citrate, is in sufficient excess to sequester all lead present, and is less likely to contaminate sections.
Journal ArticleDOI

Improvements in epoxy resin embedding methods.

John H. Luft
- 01 Feb 1961 - 
TL;DR: Epoxy embedding methods of Glauert and Kushida have been modified so as to yield rapid, reproducible, and convenientembedding methods for electron microscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Staining of Tissue Sections for Electron Microscopy with Heavy Metals

Michael L. Watson
- 25 Jul 1958 - 
TL;DR: Certain hitherto unobserved details are revealed and some sort of specificity exists, although the factors involved are not yet understood.
Journal ArticleDOI

The receptive surface of the angiosperm stigma

Yolande Heslop-Harrison, +1 more
- 01 Nov 1977 - 
TL;DR: The physiological importance of stigma type is shown by the correlations that exist between the characteristics of the receptive surface and self-incompatibility system, and various taxonotnic regularities emerge.
Journal ArticleDOI

Protein staining of ribboned epon sections for light microscopy.

Donald B. Fisher
- 01 Jan 1968 - 
TL;DR: Ribboned epon sections allow precise localization of proteins and some other materials, and, because the sections are ribboned, facilitates three-dimensional visualization of the structures involved.
