June 2020 - 17 articles

Cover Story: The group of gymnosperms known as cycads provides the horticulture community with more than 350 species. Their showy reproductive organs are among the attributes that increase the appeal of these plants in the international horticulture trade. The cover image typifies a male cone in the Cycas genus. Taxonomic and phylogenetic research on the group has dwarfed applied research, and horticulturists are left without the support of much-needed empirical research. This issue includes an article that takes a detailed look at use of developmental seed traits to estimate seed age of a representative Cycas species. View this paper

Innovation in Propagation of Fruit, Vegetable and Ornamental Plants

  • Sergio Ruffo Roberto and
  • Ronan Carlos Colombo

There are two primary forms of plant propagation: sexual and asexual. In nature, propagation of plants most often involves sexual reproduction, and this form is still used in several species. Over the years, horticulturists have developed asexual pro...
