A cytological framework of female meiosis in Arabidopsis.

Abstract excerpt

Female and male meiosis often differ in many aspects, such as their duration and the frequency as well as the positioning of crossovers. However, studying female meiosis is often very challenging and thus, much less is known about female versus male meiosis in many species including plants, where meiosis occurs deep within the ovules. To approach this gap, we developed a live-cell imaging system for female...
