Journal ArticleDOI
The biochemistry of angiosperm pollen development
TL;DR: Recent work concerning the regulation of pollen and pollen tube development at the biochemical level in angiosperms has been reviewed, commencing with the microspore immediately after meiosis and terminating with the entry of the pollen tube into the embryo sac.
Journal ArticleDOI
Haploids in flowering plants: origins and exploitation.
TL;DR: The range of techniques available for the isolation or induction of haploids are described and their value in a range of areas are discussed, from fundamental research on mutant isolation and transformation, through to applied aspects of quantitative genetics and plant breeding.
Journal ArticleDOI
Abnormal Sporogenesis in Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) Induced by Short Periods of High Temperature
Hargurdeep S. Saini,D. Aspinall +1 more
TL;DR: The female fertility of previously heat-stressed plants was assessed by pollinating with pollen from plants grown at a lower temperature and hand pollinated with similar pollen, indicating that female fertility was reduced by high temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Establishment of a tetraploid cytotype in a diploid population: Effect of relative fitness of the cytotypes
TL;DR: The conditions for the establishment of a tetraploid in a diploids population were investigated by means of a deterministic model, on the assumption that the diploid cytotype produces some 2n gametes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microspore-derived embryos in Brassica : the significance of division symmetry in pollen mitosis I to embryogenic development
M. A. M. Zaki,Hugh G. Dickinson +1 more
TL;DR: To determine whether symmetry of division is a key factor in the determination of subsequent development, cells were supplied with the antimicrotubule drug colchicine to disrupt elements of the microtubular cytoskeleton believed to be involved in nuclear positioning to suggest alteration of division symmetry is sufficient to switch the developmental pathway from gametophytic to sporophytic.

The association of non-homologous parts of chromosomes in the mid-prophase of meiosis in Zea mays
TL;DR: In many cases, the non-homologous association at pachytene appears to be as intimate as homologueous association, andTranslocations probably result from the association of non-Homologous parts of chromosomes.
