Exploration of Limonium interspecific breeding possibility : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirement for the degree of Master of Science in Plant Science at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
Interspecific crossability was investigated in the genus Limonium (Plumbaginaceae). Six Limonium species were chosen for this study, five of which are dimorphic and L.perigrinum which is monomorphic.

Nitric oxide is involved in growth regulation and re-orientation of pollen tubes [PDF]
Nitric oxide (NO) controls diverse functions in many cells and organs of animals. It is also produced in plants and has a variety of effects, but little is known about their underlying mechanisms. In the present study, we have discovered a role for NO in

OsCNGC13 promotes seed-setting rate by facilitating pollen tube growth in stylar tissues
Seed-setting rate is a critical determinant of grain yield in rice (Oryza sativa L.). Rapid and healthy pollen tube growth in the style is required for high seed-setting rate. The molecular mechanisms governing this process remain largely unknown.

Pollen tube incompatibility reaction on the stigma in selfpollinated Sinapis alba L.
After selfpollination of Sinapis alba L. pollen tubes growth is inhibited on the stigma. The pollen grains germinate 3-4 hours after pollination. The pollen give rise to one or more pollen tubes. They grow along the papillae.

Significance of autoclaving-induced toxicity from and hydrolysis of carbohydrates in in vitro studies of pollen germination and tube growth [PDF]
Autoclaving of various carbohydrates resulted in decreased in vitro pollen germination and/or pollen tube growth in species belonging to different families.

Agent-Based Modeling of Pollen Competition [PDF]
Non-random mating in Arabidopsis Thaliana is, at least in part, due to intense competition between pollen grains to fertilize the limited number of ovules.

Glucose is released by SWEET proteins into the apoplast of the pistil and taken up into pollen tubes by STP transporters to regulate pollen tube growth through HXK1 signaling.

RALF signaling pathway activates MLO calcium channels to maintain pollen tube integrity
Pollen tube tip growth requires intricate Ca^2+ signaling. Recent studies have also identified rapid alkalization factor (RALF)-family peptides and their receptors as critical components for pollen tube tip growth and integrity.

Effects of therapeutants and temperature on pollen germination, pollen tube growth and fruit set in fruit crops : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Horticultural Science at Massey University [PDF]
This study involved assessments of therapeutant effects on pollination and fruit set; of temperature effects on pollen germination and pollen tube growth in apples, peaches and kiwifruits; of flowerage effects on pollen germination and pollen tube growth
