| | Vivipary - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | A viviparous plant produces seeds that germinate before becoming detached from the parent plant, as in the mangrove. | | | A viviparous animal is an animal employing vivipary, a method of birth before which the embryo develops inside the body of the mother from which it gains nourishment, and not from an egg. | | | They may also produce bulbils or new plants rather than seed, as in the tiger lily. |

| | Analysis of Causes for Wing Polymorphisms in Aphis glycines |
| | One wingless viviparous female aphid was cultivated on the leaflet of a soybean seedling planted in sand, which was collected from a soybean field in the Institute of Plant Protection, Jilin Academia of Agriculture Science. | | | The testing parent aphids were wingless viviparous aphids, the small cage modified from the insect-trapping tube net (diameter= 4 cm, length=12 cm) used to cover the aphids settled on the soybean plant to prevent escape. | | | The differences between the treatment groups and control were not significantly smaller than that of the control, which meant that the crowding among the apterous viviparous aphids would prevent them from developing into winged aphids. |

| | Viviparous Waterlilies |
| | Hybrids can be strongly or weakly viviparous, depending on breeding, growing conditions and time of year. | | | In waterlilies there are several ways these little new plants are produced: in some tropical day bloomers from the pads, in some hardies and a very few tropical night bloomers from spent flowers. | | | It ranges from white through medium blue and is somewhere in the breeding of all viviparous cultivars. |

| | Plant of the Week 01/17/2005: Viviparous Spikerush (Eleocharis vivipara) |
| | But water levels fluctuate through the year and a viviparous spikerush that was on soil may be submerged for months after heavy rains. | | | When water levels fall and the viviparous spikerush is now growing terrestrially, it produces new culms. | | | The tip of the culm may produce a spike of flowers or, like its name suggests, it may reproduce by growing a plantlet. |

| | Book II |
| | Of the vivipara, which bring into the world an animal like themselves, some are internally viviparous (as men, horses, cattle, and of marine animals dolphins and the other cetacea); others first lay eggs within themselves, and only after this are externally viviparous (as the cartilaginous fishes). | | | If animals are hotter as shown by their possessing a lung but drier in their nature, or are colder but have more moisture, then they either lay a perfect egg or are viviparous after laying an egg within themselves. | | | Among bloodless animals the insects produce a scolex, alike those that are generated by copulation and those that copulate themselves though not so generated. |

| | Viviparous lizard - Lacerta vivipara: More Information - ARKive |
| | During early spring and late autumn (either side of hibernation), the viviparous lizard invests much of its time in basking in the sun. | | | The eggs take around three months to develop inside the female. | | | Between 7 and 8 young are typically produced; they are black in colour and surrounded by an egg membrane, from which they will free themselves after around one day. |

| | All New World Mabuya species are viviparous and placentotrophic, but African ones may be oviparous or viviparous, and embryos may feed on yolk or through placentotrophy. | | | This nutritional pattern has been known to exist in South American Mabuya for some time, but the origin thereof remained unresolved until we described extreme placentotrophy in an African lineage. | | | African Mabuya offers great potential to study not only oviparity to viviparity transformation in closely related taxa /populations, but also the evolution of viviparous placentotrophy. |

| | For animals that copulate, of one and the same species, the age for maturity is in most species tolerably uniform, unless it occurs prematurely by reason of abnormality, or is postponed by physical injury. | | | And with such animals as are not viviparous the same passage serves for the discharge also of the solid residuum; although, internally, there are two passages, separate but near to one another. | | | In viviparous animals furnished with feet there is outwardly one and the same duct for the sperm and the liquid residuum; but there are separate ducts internally, as has been observed in the differentiation of the organs. |

| | Common or Viviparous Lizard - Lacerta vivipara / Zootoca vivipara |
| | This is why the name "viviparous" is sometimes used, as it means bearing live young, as opposed to laying eggs, which is more usual for lizards. | | | The young are approximately 4 cm long and very dark brown/black in colour. | | | Mating is between April and May. The females produce between 3 and 11 young in July, the young are born in an egg sac that breaks either during birth or soon afterwards. |
