Loss of GCS1/HAP2 does not affect the ovule-targeting behavior of pollen tubes.

Plant reproduction - 1 Sept 2017

Takahashi Taro, Honda Ken, Mori Toshiyuki, Igawa Tomoko

Abstract excerpt

KEY MESSAGE : hap2-1 pollen tube ovule targeting. Upon pollination, a pollen grain germinates to produce a pollen tube, which grows through the style to deliver two immobile sperm cells to the female gametophyte. Double fertilization is completed after the pollen tube enters an ovule. GENERATIVE CELL SPECIFIC 1 (GCS1)/HAPLESS 2 (HAP2) contributes to the fusion of gametes at fertilization and has been suggested to...
