Recent advances in understanding female gametophyte development. [PDF]
F1000Res, 2018 The haploid female gametophyte (embryo sac) is an essential reproductive unit of flowering plants, usually comprising four specialized cell types, including the female gametes (egg cell and central cell).

Identification and evaluation of the novel genes for transcript normalization during female gametophyte development in sugarcane. [PDF]
PeerJ, 2021 Background Sugarcane (Saccharum spontaneum L.), the major sugar and biofuel feedstock crop, is cultivated mainly by vegetative propagation worldwide due to the infertility of female reproductive organs resulting in the reduction of quality and output of ...

Identification of lncRNAs involved in rice ovule development and female gametophyte abortion by genome-wide screening and functional analysis. [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2019 Background As important female reproductive tissues, the rice (Oryza sativa L.) ovule and female gametophyte is significant in terms of their fertility. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play important and wide-ranging roles in the growth and development of ...

The Solanum chacoense Fertilization-Related Kinase 3 (ScFRK3) is involved in male and female gametophyte development. [PDF]
BMC Plant Biol, 2019 Background The Fertilization-related kinases (FRK) form a class that belongs to the MEKK subfamily of plant MAPKKKs. It was recently shown that FRK class kinases expanded during angiosperm evolution, reaching their maximum numbers in the lineage leading ...

Effects of Antibiotic and Temperature Treatments on Phycosphere Bacterial Communities of Kelp Gametophytes. [PDF]
Environ Microbiol RepWe reveal antibiotics drive qualitative turnover, while temperature induces quantitative fluctuations in kelp gametophyte microbiomes. This 15°C growth‐pathogen trade‐off guides precision seedling management. ABSTRACT Microbiome dysbiosis represents a critical bottleneck in sustainable kelp aquaculture, yet the distinct regulatory mechanisms of ...

Pollination triggers female gametophyte development in immature Nicotiana tabacum flowers. [PDF]
Front Plant Sci, 2015 In Nicotiana tabacum, female gametophytes are not fully developed at anthesis, but flower buds pollinated 12 h before anthesis produce mature embryo sacs. We investigated several pollination-associated parameters in N.
