Outbreeding

Introduction Outbreeding devices are prevalent and more likely to occur in the case of transexual blossoms, but a subsequent series of self-pollination has a detrimental effect and induces inbreeding melancholy. This leads to homozygosity genes as well. Plants are so equipped to facilitate cross-pollination. This is referred to as interbreeding.  Possible reasons for Outbreeding devices  […]

Incomplete Flower

An incomplete flower lacks one or more of the normal flower parts, such as the male (stamen), female (pistil), petals, and sepals. Incomplete flowers are missing at least one of the four floral parts. An incomplete male flower has only a calyx, corolla, and androecium, whereas an incomplete female flower has gynoecium instead of the

Hot Water Scarification

Anyone who grows their own vegetables, flowers, herbs, or other plants starts some of them from seed in their garden. Seeds come in a wide range of sizes, shapes, and protective coatings. You may need to treat some of the seeds you plant differently.  In this article, we’ll go over what those treatments are, why

Notes on Phyllotaxy

Phyllotaxy is the term used to describe the manner in which leaves are arranged on a stem. It is extremely crucial to the plants because leaves are positioned in a certain way so that the maximum amount of sunlight reaches the leaves with the least amount of overlap. This can be alternated, opposited, or slightly

Hesperidium and Pepos

In blooming plants that generate seeds, fruits are the reproductive parts generated by the flowers. As a result,  fruits are essentially expanded ovaries that grow after the flowers have been successfully pollinated. For the seeds to grow, the superfluous portions of the flowers are shed, abandoning the undeveloped fruit that matures progressively as the bloom

Hermaphrodite flowers

It is derived from the name of a minor Greek god, Hermaphroditus, who is the son of Hermes and Aphrodite. Plants reproduce by the use of their floral reproductive organs. Most gardeners are drawn to the brightly coloured petals of flowers because of their ability to attract pollinators. When it comes to flowers’ reproductive functions,

Herbarium

Unlike a library, a herbarium stores data in a biological form–in the form of squeezed, dehydrated, and footnoted plant specimens–rather than in a traditional library format.Botanical collections are made up of specimens which have been gathered beyond a wide range of geographical areas and over a lengthy period of time. Numerous specimens of specific species

Herbaria: Meaning, History and Functions

Introduction Many sciences are dependent on plant taxonomy, which in turn is dependent on them all. Because the taxonomist is responsible for identifying and classifying plants, providing information about their flora, names and identification methods, all fields of plant science are dependent on them; their activities are fundamental. Other disciplines such as ecology, plant breeding

Herbacea

Sesbania herbacea is a fast-growing legume that is native to North America as well as flourishes in moist and soggy situations. This legume forms a mutually beneficial relationship with rhizobia, which results in the production of nitrogen-fixing patches on the plant’s roots. Creating an anaerobic condition by flooding is difficult for rhizobial growth and has

Hepaticopsida (Liverworts)

Introduction Of nearly 9,000 species, nonvascular microbe plants in the order Marchantiophyta are classified as liverwort. It is possible to find liverworts all over the world, since they are most usually found in tropical regions of the planet. Thallose liverworts, that are diversifying and ribbonlike in appearance, are usually observed on wet soil and maybe
