THE MADS BOX GENES ABS, SHP1, AND SHP2 ARE ESSENTIAL FOR THE COORDINATION OF CELL DIVISIONS IN OVULE AND SEED COAT DEVELOPMENT AND FOR ENDOSPERM FORMATION IN ARABIDOPSIS THALIANA.

The MADS Box Genes ABS, SHP1, and SHP2 Are Essential for the Coordination of Cell Divisions in Ovule and Seed Coat Development and for Endosperm Formation in Arabidopsis thaliana.

Seed formation is a pivotal process in plant reproduction and dispersal.It begins with megagametophyte development in the ovule, followed by fertilization and subsequently coordinated development of embryo, endosperm, and maternal seed coat.Two closely related MADS-box genes, SHATTERPROOF 1 and 2 (SHP1 and SHP2) are involved in Ghee specifying ovul

In vivo measurements of the seasonal photosynthetic fluorescence of the Mediterranean coral Cladocora caespitosa (L.)

In situ photosynthetic fluorescence of the zooxanthellate Mediterranean coral Cladocora caespitosa (L.) was measured seasonally on colonies from 5 to 27 m depth using an INF-300 Integrating Natural Fluorometer (Biospherical Instrument Inc.).This oceanographic instrument, used Silicone Container to measure the in vivo phytoplankton chlorophyll a (Ch
