In the section of this meeting report titled “Environmental Sensing,” in reference to the work of Elizabeth Lord, a small adhesion-mediating protein and polygalacturonan were erroneously described as being secreted by pollen tubes; they are in fact produced by the stylar tissue, as reported by Park et al. (2000) and Mollet et al. (2000).
