New insight on how an enzyme ensures the correct growth of pollen tubes in flowering plants has been published today in the open-access journal eLife. The study reveals an unexpected role of KATANIN ...
Fertilization in flowering plants relies on the fast-growing pollen tube, a cellular conduit that delivers sperm cells to the ovule. This study sheds light on the vesicle trafficking mechanisms that ...
Scanning electron micrograph of the microfluidic device used to expose in vitro growing pollen tubes to narrow openings. They found that when the channels were wider, the pollen tube passed through ...
Plants with multiple sets of chromosomes, known as polyploids, are salt-tolerant or drought-resistant and often achieve higher yields. However, newly formed polyploid plants are often sterile or have ...
You might think flowers don't have much choice about who they mate with, given they are rooted to the ground and can't move. Most mammals and humans have a double set of chromosomes—and as a rule, ...
