Figure 2.
Light microscopy observation of anthers at different developmental stages. Cross sections are shown from segregating wild type (A–E) and OsGT1/osgt1-1 (F–J) at early microspore stage (A and F), vacuolated stage (B and G), mitotic division stage 11a (C and H), mitotic division stage 11b (D and I), and mature pollen stage (E and J). BP, Binuclear pollen; DP, defective pollen; En, endodermis; Ep, epidermis; M, microspore; MP, mature pollen; T, tapetum; VP, vacuolated pollen. Bars = 25 μm.
