Researchers have decoded a long-standing mystery of how flowering plants ensure their sperm cells successfully reach the egg for fertilization, according to a recent study published in the journal ...

The researchers, who explored why ovules continue to attract pollen tubes after failed double fertilization, have also provided molecular clues for the survival of some plant species after the loss of ...

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 ...

Researchers led by Dr. LI Hongju from the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology (IGDB) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have revealed that the female gamete in flowering plants controls ...
