In Recognition of the Forgotten Generation D. L. MULCAHyl Pollen was long believed to serve primarily a single function, that of delivering male gametes to the egge A secondary and generally overlooked value of pollen is that it serves to block the transmission of many defective alleles and gene combinations into the next generation. This latter function comes about simply because pollen tubes carrying defective haploid genotypes frequently fail to complete growth through the entire length of the style. However, the beneficial consequences of this pollen selection are diluted by the fact that the same deleterious genotypes are often transmitted through the egg at strictly mendelian frequencies (Khush, 1973). Gene expression in the pollen might thus at least appear to be a phenomenon of trivial consequence. Indeed, Heslop-Harrison (1979) rightly termed the gametophytic portion of the angiosperm life cycle, the |forgotten generation.| This neglect, however, came about despite subtle but constant indications that pollen is the site of intense gene activity and selection. For example, Mok and Peloquin (1975) demonstrated that relatively heterozygous diploid pollen shows heterotic characteristics whereas relatively homozygous diploid pOllen does not. This was proof positive that genes are expressed (that is, transcribed and translated) in the pollen. 1 Department of Botany, University of Massachusetts Amherst, MA 01003, USA viii However, the implications for pollen biology of even this recent and well known study were not widely recognized.

Download Le livre érotique PDF Free

Le livre érotique PDF By:Olivier Bessard-Banquy Published on 2010 by Presses Univ de Bordeaux Le livre érotique est une vieille tradition française. Contre l'acharnement des censeurs, en profitant parfois de la tolérance des pouvoirs affaiblis, les auteurs lestes ont cherché à livrer au public le récit des pires turpitudes par goût des obscénités ou de la bravade, pour affirmer la poussée du moi, la volonté de briser les fers de la vieille société, sinon pour moquer les ridicules prescriptions de la morale. L'époque du libertinage aura été la grande époque du livre lubrique, l'apogée de la littérature galante, mais le XIXe siècle et l'entrée dans le noir des conventions bourgeoises n'ont pas tué la flamme des écrits graveleux, loin s'en faut : jusque sous les rigueurs du moralisme le plus tatillon a survécu un véritable roman poivré, inventif et téméraire. Comment cette histoire du livre érotique a-t-elle été possible ? A quelles contorsions les éditeurs galants...

Download Is God Green? PDF Free

Is God Green? PDF By:Marina Sophia Psaros Published on 2006 by In recent months, evangelical environmentalism has been the subject of much media coverage and debate. The central questions are whether evangelical environmentalists could be potential allies for the mainstream environmental movement, and what impact pro-environment evangelicals might have on politics. I argue that evangelical environmentalists do not seek alliances with the mainstream environmental movement because the perception in the wider evangelical community is that environmentalism is liberal and un-Christian. This perception is the result of a confluence of theological, political, and cultural developments that have taken place over the past 30 years. As a result, the leaders of evangelical environmentalism do not want to risk forming coalitions with civic or political groups that would alienate members of their own political and religious communities. Instead, they work from within their own religious community t...
