Inflated Ovary May Increase the Dispersal Ability of Three Species in the Cold Deserts of Central Asia.

This study found that an inflated ovary (IO) in three cold desert plant species increases dispersal distance by wind and water. The IO enhances both primary and secondary dispersal, making it an important trait to consider for plant breeding and ecosystem management.
