[Character of emergence for the seeds of Ephedra sinica]
1Etuokeqianqi General Company of Fruits and Medicinal Herbs Development, Inner Mongolia, 016200.
Abstract:
The experimental results on the germinating of Ephedra sinica seeds and sowing show: the seeds of E. sinica are not sensitive to illumination, but very sensitive to humidity; the effects of soil, the depth of sowing and irrigation on emergence are very notable, but not remarkable to covering which can be used to prevent measure.

02:33Seed Structure and Early Development of the Sporophyte
Seed structures are composed of a protective seed coat surrounding a plant embryo, and a food store for the developing embryo. The embryo contains the precursor tissues for leaves, stem, and roots. The endosperm and cotyledons—seed leaves—act as the food reserves for the growing embryo.
01:22Role of Ephrin-Eph Signalling in Intestinal Stem Cell Renewal
Erythropoietin-producing hepatocellular carcinoma receptor (Eph) and its ligand, Eph receptor-interacting protein (Ephrin) were first discovered in the human carcinoma cell line, hence the name. Ephrin-Eph interaction guides cells to reach their appropriate location in adult tissues. They also play an essential role in the immune system by helping in immune cell migration, adhesion, and activation. Based on their structure and function, Eph is divided into two classes — EphA and EphB.
03:42Introduction to Seed Plants
Most plants are seed plants—characterized by seeds, pollen, and reduced gametophytes. Seed plants include gymnosperms and angiosperms.
