Zygote - Wikipedia
A zygote (/ ˈ z aɪ ˌ ɡ oʊ t /; from Ancient Greek ζυγωτός (zygōtós) 'joined, yoked', from ζυγοῦν (zygoun) 'to join, to yoke') [1] is a eukaryotic cell formed by a fertilization event between two gametes.
Plant embryonic development - Wikipedia
Plant embryonic development, also plant embryogenesis, is a process that occurs after the fertilization of an ovule to produce a fully developed plant embryo. This is a pertinent stage in the plant life cycle that is followed by dormancy and germination. [1]
What Does A Zygote In Plants Develop Into? - Sciencing
2019年6月21日 · Both nonflowering and flowering plants come into this world as a single-celled zygote. Scientists define the zygote as a fertilized, diploid, eukaryotic cell that carries an organism's blueprint for continuing the species.
Developmental and genomic architecture of plant embryogenesis: …
The fusion of egg and sperm produces the plant zygote, a totipotent cell that, through cell division and cell identity specification in early embryogenesis, establishes the major cell lineages and tissues of the adult plant.
Polarity establishment in the plant zygote at a glance
2024年3月4日 · Thus, zygote polarity is pivotal for establishing the apical-basal axis running from the shoot apex to the root tip of the plant body. The molecular mechanisms and spatiotemporal dynamics behind zygote polarization remain elusive.
Plant development - Zygote, Embryo, Seedling | Britannica
2025年1月8日 · Plant development - Zygote, Embryo, Seedling: In vascular plants embryo formation, or embryogenesis, usually occurs within a few hours after fertilization, with the first cell division that cleaves the zygote, or fertilized egg, into two daughter cells.
The Zygotic Transition Is Initiated in Unicellular Plant Zygotes with ...
2017年11月6日 · In plants, the timing and parental genome contributions to ZGA are unresolved. Here, we use the flowering plant Oryza sativa (rice) to characterize transcriptomes of time-staged isogenic and hybrid zygotes following fertilization.
Plant zygote development: recent insights and applications to …
2021年2月1日 · In this review, we focus on the molecular genetic control of zygote development, including activation of the zygotic genome after fertilization and parent-of-origin gene expression, and discuss the utilization of this knowledge for the …
Plant zygote development: recent insights and applications to …
The zygote is the progenitor stem cell that gives rise to all the embryonic and post embryonic tissues and organs. Unlike animals, both maternal and paternal gene products participate in the initial development of zygotes in plants.
Zygote Development in Animals, Plants, Fungi, and Protists
2025年1月9日 · The zygote undergoes developmental stages, forming an embryo with a rudimentary root and shoot system. Plant zygote development is influenced by the environment, with light, water, and temperature guiding progression. Unlike animals, plants synthesize nutrients through photosynthesis, a skill acquired as the seedling grows.
