Abstract excerpt
Asymmetric cell division at pollen mitosis I (PMI) is required to specify the differential fate of the daughter vegetative and generative cells. Cytokinesis at PMI displays specialized features, and it has been suggested that there might be distinct molecular pathways underpinning different modes of cytokinesis in plants. Activation of the NACK-PQR MAP kinase signaling pathway, which is essential for somatic cell...
