Pollen tubes rapidly elongate, penetrate, and navigate through multiple female tissues to
reach ovules for sperm delivery by utilizing a specialized form of polar growth known as tip …

Once regarded as mere membrane building blocks, lipids are now recognized as diverse
and intricate players that mold the functions, identities, and responses of cellular …

Polarized exocytosis is essential for many vital processes in eukaryotic cells, where
secretory vesicles are targeted to distinct plasma membrane domains characterized by their …

The vesicle-tethering complex exocyst is one of the crucial cell polarity regulators. The
EXO70 subunit is required for the targeting of the complex and is represented by many …

Certain regions on the surfaces of developing pollen grains exhibit very limited deposition of
pollen wall exine. These regions give rise to pollen apertures, which are highly diverse in …

Phosphatidic acid (PA), an important signalling and metabolic phospholipid, is
predominantly localized in the subapical plasma membrane (PM) of growing pollen tubes …

Pollen germination and subsequent pollen tube elongation are essential for successful land
plant reproduction. These processes are achieved through well-documented activation of …

Plant cell morphogenesis involves concerted rearrangements of microtubules and actin
microfilaments. We previously reported that FH1, the main Arabidopsis thaliana …

Plants emerge as cognitive and intelligent organisms which coevolve with humans since the
first flowering plants recognized primates as potential frugivores. Later, when humans …

The growing pollen tube has become one of the most fascinating model cell systems for
investigations into cell polarity and polar cell growth in plants. Rapidly growing pollen tubes …
