Duarte Figueiredo @duartedf.bsky.social · 01/12/2025Thank you for @maxplanck.de and @humboldt-foundation.de for supporting this work! 010
Duarte Figueiredo @duartedf.bsky.social · 01/12/2025We also show that auxin is sufficient to drive early seed development in species that have diverged over 100 million years ago. We therefore propose that auxin-mediated formation of the seed nourishing structures is an ancient mechanism, likely predating the gymnosperm-angiosperm split. 110
Duarte Figueiredo @duartedf.bsky.social · 01/12/2025Using the water-lily Nymphaea caerulea, among other early-diverging angiosperms, we discovered that a specific clade of auxin biosynthesis genes are paternally expressed in the endosperm after fertilization. 100

Duarte Figueiredo @duartedf.bsky.social · 01/12/2025It's great to see this work finally out! @newphyt.bsky.social Here we showed that auxin production after fertilization is a conserved, paternal-triggered mechanism for seed initiation in angiosperms. 12010
