The rice protein OsFKBP20‐1b protects key RNA‐surveillance factors from breakdown, so they can better eliminate defective messages. This RNA quality‐control boost reduces errors and helps plants survive drought, revealing a link between RNA control and drought tolerance.

Gametophyte development in angiosperms occurs within diploid sporophytic structures and requires coordinated development; e.g., development of the male gametophyte pollen depends on the surrounding sporophytic tissue, the tapetum.

Summary Generation of competent offspring is vital for the prosperity of flowering plants. The pistil not only functions as a conduit for pollen tubes to grow to the ovary but also provides a selective venue for facilitating the growth of compatible pollen tubes and discouraging invaders and incompatible pollen.

Structure and development of male gametophyte in Carya illinoensis (Wangenh.) K. Koch
In order to understand the differentiation of staminate flowers of pecans (Carya illinoensis (Wangenh.) K. Koch), we carried out an integrated study of staminate flower development in a protogynous cultivar, Mahan, by assessing changes in external ...

TaRIP2 Positively Regulates Wheat Pollen Wall Formation Through MYB80‐Controlled Lipid Metabolism
ABSTRACT Male‐sterile genes and mutants are critical for hybrid seed production in monocotyledonous crops. Lipids are essential structural components of male reproductive organs, such as the anther and pollen. Here, we show that the pollen‐preferential gene TaRIP2 is essential for wheat anther development and pollen formation. RT‐qPCR analysis revealed

Dynamic changes of small RNAs in rice spikelet development reveal specialized reproductive phasiRNA pathways [PDF]
Dissection of the genetic pathways and mechanisms by which anther development occurs in grasses is crucial for both a basic understanding of plant development and for examining traits of agronomic importance such as male sterility.

Transcription Profiling of Potato Leaves in Response to Heat Stress at Single‐Cell Resolution
ABSTRACT Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is a globally important food crop with considerable nutritional and economic value. Heat stress significantly inhibits potato plant growth and tuber development, constraining the sustainable development of the potato industry. Currently, studies on the cellular‐level mechanisms underlying heat adaptation in potato

Embryological features, pollen and seed viability of Arnica montana (Asteraceae) – a threatened endemic species in Europe [PDF]
The embryological features, mode of reproduction and reproductive capacity (pollen and seed viability) on two naturalized populations of Arnica montana in Bulgaria were studied. The embryological study shows that A.
