Abstract excerpt
Callose or beta-1,3-glucan performs multiple functions during male and female gametophyte development. Callose is synthesized by 12 members of the glucan synthase-like (GSL) gene family in Arabidopsis thaliana. To elucidate the biological roles of Arabidopsis GSL family members during sexual development, we initiated a reverse genetic approach with T-DNA insertional mutagenesis lines. We screened T-DNA insertion...
