Collaborative Research: The evolution and development of fundamental reproductive structur — NSF Award to New York Botanical Garde

Non-Technical Paragraph: Plant reproductive structures come in many forms from fertile leaves to cones to flowers. The one commonality amongst all of these reproductive structures is the sporangium where the genetic material is halved. The transition to sporangium initiation and its subsequent development are essential

AbstractNon-Technical Paragraph: Plant reproductive structures come in many forms from fertile leaves to cones to flowers. The one commonality amongst all of these reproductive structures is the sporangium where the genetic material is halved. The transition to sporangium initiation and its subsequent development are essential for the production of plant genetic diversity, the completion of the plant life cycle, and the production of seeds. The evolution and development of sporangia are key to the succe
