New research from James Cook University has made the extraordinary discovery that epaulette sharks can reproduce and lay eggs ...

Climate change may harm early-flowering plants not through plant-pollinator mismatch but through frost damage, a new study shows. Climate change may harm early-flowering plants not through ...

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 suggests ...

A scientist has moved a step closer to turning sexually-reproducing plants into asexual reproducers, a finding that could have profound implications for agriculture. Farmers throughout the world spend ...

Self-incompatibility (SI) is a sophisticated reproductive strategy that prevents self-fertilisation and maintains genetic variability in flowering plants. This mechanism involves highly specific ...
