Abstract:
... Sunflower ‘Sunfinity’ (Helianthus hybrida) can be produced as a potted plant if apical dominance is removed with a manual pinch to control plant height and promote branching and flower number. Chemical pinching agents such as dikegulac sodium could prove to be valuable tools to reduce the labor and costs associated with manual pinching. Our objective was to determine the time of seedling growth an ...

Abstract:
... Thelaxes suberi (Del Guercio) was found for the first time in North America. The first collection was on a single potted oak tree in rural Marion County, Florida. Morphological and molecular techniques were used to determine the identity of this adventive species. The find was reported first only as a quarantinable pest, because the prior whereabouts of the potted plant were not known. However, su ...

This matters as these products are heterogeneous not only across product categories but also within the same plant genus, changing the baseline cognitive load for consumer decision‐making. This study uses eye‐tracki ...

Abstract:
... Poinsettia is an economically important ornamental potted plant in which certain bract colour variants are often obtained by mutation breeding. Previously, in poinsettia, we identified Bract1, a GST gene involved in the sequestration and transport of anthocyanins to the vacuole. This gene carries a short, highly mutable 4‐bp repeat in its coding region. Loss of one repeat unit leads to a loss of f ...

Abstract:
... Most plant species are pollinated by animals, mainly insects, who adjust their foraging behaviour to the spatial distribution of rewards. Any changes in rewards of individual plants could then affect pollen dispersal at the level of plant patches or populations. Such change in floral rewards often results from infection by plant pathogens, for example by anther smuts (i.e. no pollen and reduced ne ...
