Calcium: A Critical Factor in Pollen Germination and Tube Elongation. [PDF]
Pollen is the male gametophyte of higher plants. Its major function is to deliver sperm cells to the ovule to ensure successful fertilization. During this process, many interactions occur among pollen tubes and pistil cells and tissues, and calcium ion ...

Stigmatic exudate in the Annonaceae: Pollinator reward, pollen germination medium or extragynoecial compitum? [PDF]
Although “dry‐type” stigmas are widely regarded as ancestral in angiosperms, the early‐divergent family Annonaceae has copious stigmatic exudate. We evaluate three putative functions for this exudate: as a nutritive reward for pollinators; as a pollen ...

Dynamic organelle changes and autophagic processes in lily pollen germination [PDF]
Pollen germination is a crucial process in the life cycle of flowering plants, signifying the transition of quiescent pollen grains into active growth. This study delves into the dynamic changes within organelles and the pivotal role of autophagy during ...

Pollen germination of myrobalan, cornelian and sweet cherry genotypes in North Montenegro area [PDF]
The vitality of pollen grains or their functional ability is of great importance for a successful fertilisation. For the proper selection of good pollinators, apart from the analyses of flowering periods, it is necessary to determine the pollen ...

A Compendium of in vitro Germination Media for Pollen Research
The correct choice of in vitro pollen germination media (PGM) is crucial in basic and applied pollen research. However, the methodological gaps (e.g., strong focus of current research on model species and cultivated plants along with the lack of general ...
