In recent years, Tatu has been testing another theory as well: poisoning by aristolochic acid, a toxin found in plants of the Aristolochia genus.
Certain viruses can cause enlargement of the leaflike flower parts (sepals) surrounding the base of a blossom in plants of the nightshade family.
The pollen grains of most plants produce only one pollen tube, but 10 or more pollen tubes have been observed to develop from one pollen grain in plants of the mallow family.
Our study of the somatic chromosomes at metaphase of Begonia longgangensis revealed different ploidy levels in plants of the same population (2n = 30, 45) (Figure 3).
The main bioactive chemicals found in plants of genus Hedysarum play an important role in the prevention of several tumor cell types.
In the present review, we summarize and list all of the secondary metabolites that have been identified in plants of genus Hedysarum over the past few decades.
Vincamine, a monoterpenoid indole alkaloid which had been marketed as nootropic drugs for the treatment of cerebral insufficiencies, is widely found in plants of the Apocynaceae family.
Betalains are tyrosine-derived red-violet and yellow pigments found exclusively in plants of the Caryophyllales order, which have drawn both scientific and economic interest.
