Journal ArticleDOI
Pectin methylesterase, a regulator of pollen tube growth
TL;DR: Results from in vitro growth analysis and immunolocalization studies provide support for the idea that the pro-region acts as an intracellular inhibitor of PME activity, thereby preventing premature deesterification of pectins.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pectin Methylesterases and Pectin Dynamics in Pollen Tubes
Maurice Bosch,Peter K. Hepler +1 more
TL;DR: Pectic polysaccharides are an essential component of the primary plant cell wall and are particularly prominent in pollen tubes, where they control the structure and yielding characteristics of the cell wall at the growing apex of these rapidly expanding cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exocytosis precedes and predicts the increase in growth in oscillating pollen tubes
Sylvester T. McKenna,Joseph G. Kunkel,Maurice Bosch,Caleb M. Rounds,Luis Vidali,Lawrence J. Winship,Peter K. Hepler +6 more
TL;DR: Exocytosis emerges as a prime candidate for the initiation and regulation of oscillatory pollen tube growth and the anticipatory increase in wall material predicts, to a high degree, the rate and extent of the subsequent growth surge.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reactive Oxygen Species and Nitric Oxide Mediate Actin Reorganization and Programmed Cell Death in the Self-Incompatibility Response of Papaver
Katie A. Wilkins,James Bancroft,Maurice Bosch,Jennifer Ings,Nicholas Smirnoff,Vernonica E. Franklin-Tong +5 more
TL;DR: These data represent the first steps in understanding ROS/NO signaling triggered by this receptor-ligand interaction in pollen tubes, and it is demonstrated that ROS and NO act upstream of these key SI markers and suggests that they signal to these SI events.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pistil factors controlling pollination.
TL;DR: The successful establishment of angiosperms on land is in part determined by their floral design, which has developed a great variety of flowers to provide different mechanisms of pollen release, pollen transfer, and deposition of the pollen from plants.
