Most plants allow fungal microorganisms to enter their root cells and provide them with carbohydrates in exchange for a better supply of nutrients and water. Only leguminous plants like peas, beans, ...
Figure 1. Pollen tube growth and guidance by the LURE peptide in Arabidopsis. Pollen tubes are attracted by LURE peptides, which are produced from ovules, to bring about fertilization. In their recent ...
Rapid alkalinization factors (RALFs) are required for pollen tube germination and elongation, an essential process in plant fertilization. But their role in monocot plants remains unexplored.
The peptide, named NON-DEFENSIN PEPTIDE ATTRACTANT 1 (NPA1), represents the first non-defensin-type attractant identified in dicots and expands the known diversity of fertilization cues in flowering ...
Researchers found that attractant peptides released by female tissues initiate rapid depolymerization and repolymerization of actin at the leading edge of the pollen tube tip, steering its direction ...
In the flowering plant world, reproduction means an intricate succession of events. It begins when a pollen grain that carries the sperm cells lands on the top of the pistil, the female reproductive ...
Roses bloom in winters and wither in summers. With proper care and fertilisation, the plant will bloom even while ...
The ASARI Institute at Mohammed VI Polytechnic University (UM6P) is seeking a highly motivated and skilled Postdoctoral Fellow in Plant Nutrition and Fertilization. The successful candidate will ...
