Abstract excerpt
Meiosis assures formation of both male and female gametes. However, cytological studies of female meiotic chromosome behavior in plants are scarce, mainly due to the comparatively low number and inaccessibility of female meiotic cells. We present Female Meiotic cell IDentification (FeM-ID), an approach for cytological identification of female meiotic cells in Arabidopsis. By employing ASY1-eYFP-TurboID, female...
