The interaction between seed plants and animals during pollination and fruit and seed dispersal is well known, and marks the sexual reproduction process. During the history of the plant kingdom, the development of sexual reproduction has been governed by changes in the environment of the plant, together with the increasing complexity of organisms. The interactions between gametes and the environment...
Selected cDNA clones of Arabidopsis thaliana, isolated previously by suppression subtractive hybridisation, were used to differentiate between abiotic stress factors. Changes in expression patterns of 79 genes were examined by array analysis in Arabidopsis thaliana after fumigation with ozone and after short- or long-term mercuric-ion exposure. Substantial changes in the abundance of 42 transcripts...
Sexual reproduction in angiosperms is an interactive process involving the sporophyte, gametophytes, embryo and endosperm as well as the environment, aimed at achieving pollination, fertilization and dispersal. This interaction occurs via an interface with nutrients and signals outside the cell and even outside the plant. Sexual reproduction has a history. In water, algae have different types of sex...
This paper present the results of investigations of the level of contamination by radioactive isotopes of grass and soil of the Polish and Ukrainian Roztocze area. Heavy metal contents in soil were also measured. The highest level of radioactivity was found in the Northwestern part of Roztocze which may be explained by the close vicinity of industrial centers. The presence of caesium gave from 0.6...
Transformation techniques are making it possible to produce novel and unusual plant phenotypes. When considering the environmental impact of these, it is important to do so in the context of what is known about conventional plant breeding and the thousands of varieties that have been produced during this century and earlier. There has now been over ten years of experience of environmental impact assessment...
