The basic helix–loop–helix (bHLH) transcription factor DTT1 is part of a paired key that unlocks the tapetum transition in barley anther development

open access: yes
The production of viable pollen is essential for effective fertilization and optimal crop yields; however, our understanding of the underlying mechanisms remains limited.

Fine structure of the tapetum lucidum in the short-tailed stingray Dasyatis brevicaudata [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The tapetum lucidum of the short-tailed stingray (Dasatis brevicaudata) is located in the choroid of the superior fundus immediately external to the choriocapillaris.

Oleosin gene expression in Arabidopsis thaliana tapetum coincides with accumulation of lipids in plastids and cytoplasmic bodies

open access: yes, 1997
Oleosins are alkaline proteins found on the surface of oil bodies in plants. They serve a structural role in stabilizing the triacylglycerols of the oil bodies together with the phos pholipid layer.

Some reflective properties of the tapetum lucidum of the cat's eye

open access: yes, 1971
1. Observation of the fresh, isolated tapetum of the cat with a low-power microscope showed it to be composed of multilayer reflectors (domains) each being less than 6 μm in diameter.

Role of the tapetum in pollen and spore dispersal

open access: yes, 1993
Group-specific functions linked to the dispersal of pollen and spores are reported in all the groups of land plants. Anthocerotopsida tapetal cells envelop developing meiocytes and spores; after exine formation their walls thicken, the cytoplasm starts ...

Barley TAPETAL DEVELOPMENT and FUNCTION1 (HvTDF1) gene reveals conserved and unique roles in controlling anther tapetum development in dicot and monocot plants

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2023
The anther tapetum helps control microspore release and essential components for pollen wall formation. TAPETAL DEVELOPMENT and FUNCTION1 (TDF1) is an essential R2R3 MYB tapetum transcription factor in Arabidopsis thaliana; however, little is known about

Sporophytic control of pollen meiotic progression is mediated by tapetum expression of ABORTED MICROSPORES

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Botany, 2022
Pollen development is dependent on the tapetum, a sporophytic anther cell layer surrounding the microspores that functions in pollen wall formation but is also essential for meiosis-associated development.

The tapetum: Its form, function, and possible phylogeny inEmbryophyta

open access: yesPlant Systematics and Evolution, 1985
It appears that the tapetum is universally present in land plants, even though it is sometimes difficult to recognize, because it serves mostly as a tissue for meiocyte/spore nutrition.
