There are multiple types of small RNAs that may affect rice pollen’s development. To investigate the small RNA populations’ change during rice pollen development, 13-40 nt RNA were extracted from uninucleate microspores (UNM) and bicellular pollen (BCP) for high throughput sequencing. Together with ...
Heatwaves resulting from global warming are a leading threat to plants because they specifically impair reproductive (gametophytic) development. We investigated pollen development using proteomics after exposure to heat (38/28 °C; day/night). Sampling enabled the identification of the impact of heat...
Differential expression profiling of microspores during the early stages of isolated microspore culture in barley using the embryogenic-responsive cultivar Gobernadora
Aims We aim to use transcriptome analysis to establish on a genome-wide scale the identity and regulatory clusters of genes that specify microgametogenesis from the haploid microspore to mature functional pollen in Arabidopsis. Background Pollen as the haploid male gametophyte plays a vital role in ...
Wild species are valuable resources for developing resilient crops to environmental stresses. We used Gossypium robinsonii, Australian wild cotton, to investigate the molecular signatures contributing to the tolerance of this plant to harsh environments. Three stages of pollen development, including...
