RUVBL proteins are involved in plant gametophyte development
Significance Statement We show that RUVBL1 and RUVBL2, plant orthologues of human Pontin and Reptin, are essential for the proper development of both male and especially female gametophytes in Arabidopsis. SUMMARY The proper development of male and female gametophytes is critical for successful sexual reproduction and requires a carefully regulated ...

In flowering plants, male reproductive function is determined by successful development and performance of stamens, pollen grains, and pollen tubes. Despite the crucial role of highly glycosylated arabinogalactan-proteins (AGPs) in male gamete formation,

Strategies of tolerance reflected in two North American maple genomes
SUMMARY Maples (the genus Acer) represent important and beloved forest, urban, and ornamental trees distributed throughout the Northern hemisphere. They exist in a diverse array of native ranges and distributions, across spectrums of tolerance or decline, and have varying levels of susceptibility to biotic and abiotic stress.

Summary We have recently characterised NET2A as a pollen‐specific actin‐binding protein that binds F‐actin at the plasma membrane of growing pollen tubes. However, the role of NET2 proteins in pollen development and fertilisation have yet to be elucidated.

The development of male reproductive organ in plants is seriously affected by the adverse abiotic stresses. In this study, we investigated pollen development, particularly at microsporogenesis and micro gametogenesis stages of chili pepper (Capsicum ...

Differential Expression Profiling Reveals Stress-Induced Cell Fate Divergence in Soybean Microspores
Stress-induced microspore embryogenesis is a widely employed method to achieve homozygosity in plant breeding programs. However, the molecular mechanisms that govern gametophyte de- and redifferentiation are understood poorly.

Plasmodium APC3 mediates chromosome condensation and cytokinesis during atypical mitosis in male gametogenesis [PDF]
The anaphase promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) is a highly conserved multi-subunit E3 ubiquitin ligase that controls mitotic division in eukaryotic cells by tagging cell cycle regulators for proteolysis.

Pollen development in Mill. (Annonaceae). Implications for the evolution of aggregated pollen [PDF]
In most flowering plants, pollen is dispersed as monads. However, aggregated pollen shedding in groups of four or more pollen grains has arisen independently several times during angiosperm evolution.

Microsporogenesis and microgametogenesis of the Argentinian species ofPodocarpus(Podocarpaceae) [PDF]
Abstract The development of the microsporangium and male gametophyte of three species of Podocarpus was studied with light microscopy (LM) and the morphology of pollen with scanning and transmission electron microscopy (SEM and TEM). During early stages, the male cone is covered with coriaceous scales.
