Pollen-pistil interaction - Open Access .click

Annual Review of Plant Biology, 2021
Pollen-pistil interactions serve as important prezygotic reproductive barriers that play a critical role in mate selection in plants. Here, we highlight recent progress toward understanding the molecular basis of pollen-pistil interactions as reproductive isolating barriers.

Signaling in pollen–pistil interactions

Seminars in Cell & Developmental Biology, 1999
A complex set of cell interactions is required to achieve fertilization. The pollen grain must be recognized by the pistil, take up water, and grow a pollen tube directionally through the style in order to deliver the sperm to the ovule. In many families of flowering plants, self-fertilization can be prevented by recognition mechanisms that allow self ...

Pollen-pistil interaction in wheat

Acta Botanica Neerlandica, 1994
General organization and ultrastructure of pistil transmitting tract (PTT) for pollen tube pathway in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and pollen tube growth were studied. The peculiar features of cell ultrastructure in different parts of the PTT were shown and point to heterogeneous pollen tube pathway.

Species Specificity in Pollen-Pistil Interactions

Annual Review of Genetics, 2004
▪ Abstract For pollination to succeed, pollen must carry sperm through a variety of different floral tissues to access the ovules within the pistil. The pistil provides everything the pollen requires for success in this endeavor including distinct guidance cues and essential nutrients that allow the pollen tube to traverse enormous distances along a ...
