Protein and transcript comparison. Tobacco protein abundances (NSAF scores over three replicates) and Arabidopsis transcript levels were grouped according to MapMan. All transcript data excluding pollen tubes were derived from Honys et al. (43). Pollen tube transcript data were derived from Wang et al. (76). Arabidopsis stages: UNM, unicellular microspores; BCP, bicellular pollen; TCP, tricellular pollen; MPG, mature pollen grains; PT, pollen tubes. Tobacco stages: D, microspores; E, polarized microspores; F, binuclear pollen; G, desiccated pollen; H, pollen tubes.
