Arabidopsis COG Complex Subunits COG3 and COG8 Modulate Golgi Morphology, Vesicle Trafficking Homeostasis and Are Essential for Pollen Tube Growth. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2016
Spatially and temporally regulated membrane trafficking events incorporate membrane and cell wall materials into the pollen tube apex and are believed to underlie the rapid pollen tube growth.

The making of gametes in higher plants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Higher plants have evolved to be one of the predominant life forms on this planet. A great deal of this evolutionary success relies in a very short gametophytic phase which underlies the sexual reproduction cycle. Sexual plant reproduction takes place in

Scanning and transmission electron microscopy ofEimeria maximamicrogametogenesis

open access: yesParasitology, 1981
SUMMARYThe structure and development of microgametocytes ofEimeria maximafrom chicks killed during the 6th day of infection were examined using transmission and scanning electron microscopy. Initially, nucleoli disappear and the surface of the microgametocyte invaginates.

Pollen Development and Stainability in Vicia faba L. and Lupinus angustifolius L.

open access: yesAgriculture, 2023
Commercially, leguminous crops (Fabaceae) are the second most important group of cultivated plants, just after grasses (Poaceae). This study focuses on the analysis of pollen development and stainability in two species belonging to the Fabaceae family ...

Female inheritance of malarial lap genes is essential for mosquito transmission. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2007
Members of the LCCL/lectin adhesive-like protein (LAP) family, a family of six putative secreted proteins with predicted adhesive extracellular domains, have all been detected in the sexual and sporogonic stages of Plasmodium and have previously been ...

Cytology and Kinetics of microgametogenesis and fertilization in Plasmodium yoelii nigeriensis

open access: yesParasitology, 1975
The sexual development of the microgametocyte of Plasmodium yoelii nigeriensis may be subdivided into microgametogenesis which includes exflagellation, dispersal of the gametes and fertilization. Under our experimental conditions microgametogenesis takes about 8–15 min at 20 °C, the duration of this period being inversely related to temperature ...

Development of Eimeria nieschulzi (Coccidia, Apicomplexa) Gamonts and Oocysts in Primary Fetal Rat Cells

open access: yesJournal of Parasitology Research, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
The in vitro production of gametocytes and oocysts of the apicomplexan parasite genus Eimeria is still a challenge in coccidiosis research. Until today, an in vitro development of gametocytes or oocysts had only been shown in some Eimeria species. For several mammalian Eimeria species, partial developments could be achieved in different cell types, but
