The mechanism by which liverwort (Marchantia polymorpha) asexually reproduces via the development of clonal progenies (gemmae) has been revealed by a cross-institutional research group. They ...

Plant reproduction is highly complex and variable across the kingdom. The emergence of sexual reproduction has contributed to increase plant genetic diversity and enabled the colonisation of new ...

Premise of the Study: Perennial grasses maintain aboveground tiller populations through vegetative reproduction via below-ground buds and sexual reproduction via seed. The maintenance of a bud bank ...

The responses of reproduction and growth to climate warming are important issues to predict the fate of plant populations at high latitudes. Spring ephemerals inhabiting cool-temperate forests grow ...

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 ...

Sharks have been known to reproduce either sexually or asexually, but it's usually one or the other. Now, researchers have observed the first documented case of a zebra (or leopard) shark switching ...
