The Drosophila dominant wing mutation Dichaete results from ectopic expression of a Sox-domain gene
The dominant Drosophila wing mutation Dichaete is characterised by the deletion of proximal wing structures. By analysing a number of new Dichaete alleles, phenotypic revertants and enhancer piracy lines, we sho...

Interspecific incompatibility in Populus: inhibition of tube growth and behaviour of the male germ unit inP. deltoides×P. alba cross
In order to better understand the cellular events controlling interspecific incompatibility in the genus Populus, the incompatible cross betweenP. deltoides andP. alba has been investigated both at the light and ...

Male gametophyte development and formation of the male germ unit inPopulus deltoides following compatible pollination
This study, combining the use of fluorescence and electron microscopy, is devoted to the behaviour of thePopulus deltoides male gametophyte following compatible crosses but prior to fertilization. Close associati...

Indications of species status from total protein signatures in Callithamnion (Ceramiaceae)
Taxonomic problems with Callithamnion spp. of wave-exposed shores in both Europe (principally) and elsewhere in the distribution ranges are well known, but remain only partially understood and solved (see Price (...

Bryophyte Production at Marion Island
Annual shoot production of bryophytes at Marion Island (45° 54′S, 37° 45′E) ranges from 21 g m2 in fellfield to 754 g m2 in drainage lines. This trend is correlated with soil-water content on a xerix-hydric gradi...

Acetylene reduction by bryophyte-cyanobacteria associations on a Subantarctic island
Nineteen bryophyte species containing epiphytic cyanobacteria on Marion Island (46°54′ S, 37°45′ E) were investigated for their capacity to reduce acetylene in the field. Fourteen species exhibited reduction, ...
