This Scientific Reports Collection considers original research on asexual reproduction strategies in plants, from studies on their genetic regulation and evolution throughout plant lineages, to ...

Genetic diversity is essential to the survival of a species. It's easy enough to maintain if a species reproduces sexually; ...

Asexual reproduction for crops If thale cress were to be genetically modified such that the central cells produced the protein cyclin themselves, they would begin to divide even without fertilization.

Reproduction in plants can either be asexual, where they make clones of themselves or sexual, and that's where flowering plants have male parts and plants have female parts and together they can ...

Because plants are also capable of asexual reproduction, it’s common to use cuttings to develop cultivars that are clones of a dioecious, male flowering plant. This is how fruitless olive and ...

Asexual, or vegetative, reproduction in plants is controlled by environmental conditions, but the molecular signaling pathways that control this process are poorly understood. Recent research ...

If we could find a way to propagate crop plants by asexual reproduction through seeds – known as apomixis – it would revolutionize agriculture. If it were possible to bypass the reductional division ...

Seeds are the end product of plant reproduction. ... If we could find a way to propagate crop plants by asexual reproduction through seeds—known as apomixis—it would revolutionize agriculture.
