FIGURE 7

Formation of female gamete was arrested in SDS::SDS-BARNASE Arabidopsis plants. (A–C) WT ovules showing two separated nuclei (arrows) at the FG3 stage (A), four nuclei (arrows) at the FG4 stage (B), and the central cell, the egg cell, and synergid cells in a mature embryo sac (white dots outlined) at the FG6 stage (C). (D–F) SDS::SDS-BARNASE ovules showing one small nucleus (arrow) at both FG3 (D) and FG4 (E) stages and a small empty embryo sac (white dots outlined) at the FG6 stage (F). Bars = 10 μm. cc, central cell; ec, egg cell; and syn, synergid cells.
