  2. Methylprednisolone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methylprednisolone

    Methylprednisolone (Depo-Medrol, Medrol, Solu-Medrol) is a synthetic glucocorticoid, primarily prescribed for its anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] [ 6 ] It is either used at low doses for chronic illnesses or used concomitantly at high doses during acute flares.

  3. Self-incompatibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-incompatibility

    However, as opposed to 'complete' or 'absolute' SI, in CSI, self-pollination without the presence of competing cross pollen, results in successive fertilization and seed set; [45] in this way, reproduction is assured, even in the absence of cross-pollination. CSI acts, at least in some species, at the stage of pollen tube elongation, and leads ...

  4. Prostate brachytherapy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prostate_brachytherapy

    It may be referred to as 'seed implantation' or it may be called 'pinhole surgery'. [1] In LDR brachytherapy, tiny radioactive particles the size of a grain of rice are implanted directly into, or very close to, the tumour. These particles are known as 'seeds', and they can be inserted linked together as strands, or individually.

  5. Pollination management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pollination_management

    With the decline of both wild and domestic pollinator populations, pollination management is becoming an increasingly important part of horticulture.Factors that cause the loss of pollinators include pesticide misuse, unprofitability of beekeeping for honey, rapid transfer of pests and diseases to new areas of the globe, urban/suburban development, changing crop patterns, clearcut logging ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selection_methods_in_plant...

    Plant species where normal mode of seed set is through a high degree of cross-pollination have characteristic reproductive features and population structure. Existence of self-sterility, [1] self-incompatibility, imperfect flowers, and mechanical obstructions make the plant dependent upon foreign pollen for normal seed set. Each plant receives ...

  7. Entomophily - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entomophily

    Entomophily or insect pollination is a form of pollination whereby pollen of plants, especially but not only of flowering plants, is distributed by insects. Flowers pollinated by insects typically advertise themselves with bright colours, sometimes with conspicuous patterns (honey guides) leading to rewards of pollen and nectar ; they may also ...

  9. Pollination network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pollination_network

    The pollination network is bipartite as interactions only exist between two distinct, non-overlapping sets of species, but not within the set: a pollinator can never be pollinated, unlike in a predator-prey network where a predator can be depredated. [2]
