Anther structure and pollen development in Melicoccus lepidopetalus (Sapindaceae): an evolutionary approach to dioecy in the family [PDF]
Anther and pollen development in staminate and pistillate flowers of dioecious Melicoccus lepidopetalus (Sapindaceae) were examined by light and electron microscopy.

In the fertile cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) line 2074B, the long non‐coding RNA lncRNA67 acted as an endogenous target mimic, regulating microRNA‐mediated cleavage of GhCYP724B, encoding a cytochrome P450 that promotes brassinosteroid biosynthesis. In the cytoplasmic male sterile line 2074A, GhCYP724B interacted with a unique chimeric open reading frame,

The cellulose synthase complex–interacting factor CASPARIAN STRIP MEMBRANE DOMAIN‐LIKE1 plays a crucial role in regulating secondary cell wall thickening in cotton fibers by stabilizing the cellulose synthase complex on the plasma membrane. ABSTRACT Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) fibers are elongated single cells that rapidly accumulate cellulose during ...

Morphology of flower bud differentiation and floral organ specialization in Caucasian clover
Abstract Flower bud differentiation is the commencement of plant reproductive development. Flower organ specialization follows flower bud differentiation. This biological mechanism controls whether plants reproduce successfully via seed. Caucasian clover (Trifolium ambiguum) is used in mixed temperate pastures.

OsALKBH9‐mediated m6A demethylation regulates tapetal PCD and pollen exine accumulation in rice
Summary The N6‐methyladenosine (m6A) mRNA modification is crucial for plant development and stress responses. In rice, the male sterility resulting from the deficiency of OsFIP37, a core component of m6A methyltransferase complex, emphasizes the significant role of m6A in male fertility. m6A is reversible and can be removed by m6A demethylases. However,

Summary Acyl‐CoA‐Binding Proteins (ACBPs) bind acyl‐CoA esters and function in lipid metabolism. Although acbp3‐1, the ACBP3 mutant in Arabidopsis thaliana ecotype Col‐0, displays normal floral development, the acbp3‐2 mutant from ecotype Ler‐0 characterized herein exhibits defective adaxial anther lobes and improper sporocyte formation.

Elucidating the mechanism of poricidal anther dehiscence on Miconia species (Melastomataceae)
Melastomataceae have porate anthers. However, unlike Solanaceae and many monocots, in which the poricidal dehiscence depends on the presence of a mechanical layer (often the endothecium), most members of Melastomataceae have no evident specialized layer ...
