Plant Reproduction: Autocrine Machinery for the Long Journey of the Pollen Tube
Abstract
Many receptor-like kinases localized at the pollen tube tip precisely control tube functions in flowering plants. Two recent reports have identified autocrine peptide ligands and receptor systems, providing insight into the molecular machinery that controls pollen tube growth and termination.
