Abstract

A short review of the available data on plant development, seed-to-seed, and next generations, and formation of generative and vegetative organs in real and simulated microgravity is presented. It is emphasized the timeliness of the emergence of plant space reproductive biology and its importance for progress in space agriculture that is necessary for future human exploration of space.
