The aim of this study was to evaluate the viability and longevity of the pollen grains of the olive cultivar 'Picual', the most extensive and important olive cultivar in the Iberian Peninsula. Over a ...

Terminal drought during the reproductive stage is a major constraint to yield of chickpea in many regions of the world. Termination of watering (WS) during podding in a small-seeded desi chickpea ...

Pollen viability is a critical factor in ensuring fertilization and, ultimately, crop yields. However, wheat pollen is particularly vulnerable to heat stress, which can lead to abnormal pollen ...

A pivotal study has shed new light on the molecular underpinnings of plant reproduction, pinpointing a key interaction that is vital for the development of pollen. The research zeroes in on the ...
