Nagoya University Researchers Discover A Mechanism For Successful Self-pollination By Aligning The Length Of Stamens And Pistils

A research group led by Professor Naoyuki Uchida of the Nagoya University Gene Research Laboratory, Tokai National University Organization, has discovered a mechanism for successful self-pollination in plants by aligning the lengths of stamens and pistils through the action of peptide hormones. Newly discovered .
The results of this research are expected to lead to technology to prevent self-pollination failure, which is the basis of plant yield .
The results of this research were published in the online version of the British scientific journal Plant, Cell & Environment on November 23, 2022.
