Assessment of in Vitro Pollen Germination and Pollen Tube Growth of Annona Cherimola Mill
International Journal of Fruit Science, 2022 Yield in cherimoya (Annona cherimola Mill.) is affected by various factors reducing fertilization and fruit production such as: the protogynous dichogamy of the flowers, deficient natural pollination, and low pollen quality.

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Of the three types of cytoskeleton known in animals—actin, microtubules, and intermediate filaments—only actin and microtubules exist in plants. Both play important roles in cellular shaping, organelle movement, organization of the endomembrane system, and cell signaling.

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Pollen is a male gametophyte of angiosperms. Following meiosis, the microspore undergoes an asymmetric division called pollen mitosis I (PMI), which produces two cells of different sizes: a large vegetative cell and a small generative cell. Polarized nuclear migration and positioning during PMI are important for successful pollen development ...

Pollen: A Potential Explant for Genetic Transformation in Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)
Agronomy, 2022 The use of biotechnology for the genetic improvement of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) has been hampered by its recalcitrance to standard transformation and regeneration protocols. Male gametes present a potentially useful option for introducing gene edits

In vitro Germination and Pollen Conservation of Some Musa Species [PDF]
Asian Journal of Biotechnology, 2011 The yield ofbanana and plantain which is an important food is affected especially by black leaf streak disease. Pollen from resistant wild types is used by conventional breeding to create new hybrids resistant to black leaf streak disease. A strategy of pollen genetic resource preservation and storage is necessary for this breeding.
