Exposure of Pisum sativum L. Seeds to Methomyl and Imidacloprid Cause Genotoxic Effects in Pollen-Mother Cells [PDF]
Pesticides are commonly used in modern agricultural systems to protect the plants from pests. Even though they potentially increase the crop yield, they have undesirable toxic effects on the consumers of plant products and nontarget host plants. However,

Cell-Type-Specific Heat-Induced Changes in the Proteomes of Pollen Mother Cells and Microspores Provide New Insights into Tomato Pollen Production Under Elevated Temperature [PDF]
Background: Tomatoes are self-pollinating plants, and successful fruit set depends on the production of functional pollen within the same flower. Our previous studies have shown that the ‘Black Vernissage’ tomato variety exhibits greater resilience to ...

Cytomixis in Pollen Mother Cells of Medicago sativa L [PDF]
Cytomixis (i.e., chromatin migration between meiocytes) has been detected in many plant species, but not in Medicago sativa spp. In the present study we report the identification of a few cytomictic alfalfa plants. Those plants, the "mother plants," were selfed and crossed with a normal control plant.
