Fruit development is essential for flowering plants' reproduction and a significant food
source. Climate change threatens fruit yields due to its impact on pollination and fertilization …

Flow cytometry (FCM) has been used for plant DNA content estimation since the 1980s;
however, presently, the number of laboratories equipped with flow cytometers has …

The spatial organization of chromatin can be subject to extensive remodeling in plant
somatic cells in response to developmental and environmental signals. However, the …

In angiosperms, the ovary wall resumes growth after pollination through a balanced
combination of cell division and cell expansion. The quantitative pattern of these events …

Rabl organization is a type of interphase chromosome arrangement with centromeres and
telomeres clustering at opposite nuclear poles. Here, we analyzed nuclear morphology and …

DNA remodeling during endoreplication appears to be a strong developmental
characteristic in orchids. In this study, we analyzed DNA content and nuclei in 41 species of …

Cell-cycle system controls flower and fruit growth, size and mass precisely, accompanied by
cumulative cell proliferation and cell expansion. Vaccinium corymbosum shows significant …

Illumination spot in a flow cytometer is a crucial factor determining the measurement
accuracy and stability. The traditional mechanism is to precisely calibrate multiple optical …

Abstract Litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn.) is an evergreen subtropical fruit, which is well
acclaimed for its delicious, juicy aril and refreshing taste. Litchi fruit cultivation became an …

Investigations of potato (Solanum tuberosum) have been hampered by its complicated
