Abstract excerpt
The exine of angiosperm pollen grains is usually covered by a complex mix of metabolites including pollen-specific hydroxycinnamic acid amides (HCAAs) and flavonoid glycosides. Although the biosynthetic pathways resulting in the formation of HCAAs and flavonol glycosides have been characterized, it is unclear how these compounds are transported to the pollen surface. In this report we provide several lines of...
