THE FEMALE GAMETOPHYTE: DEVELOPMENT AND FUNCTION
… the diploid sporophyte and the haploid gametophyte. The female gametophyte of flowering plants develops within the ovule, a specialized structure within the ovary, which gives rise to the seed after fertilization. Sexual reproduction in plants entails a series of developmental steps that …

GENETIC NETWORK CONTROLLING FEMALE GAMETOPHYTE AND EMBRYO DEVELOPMENT IN ARABIDOPSIS THALIANA
… The identification of genes involved in female gametophyte formation is of significant interest since they are of great importance for plant reproduction. In the last year, different researches have been done in order to identify genes important for embryo sac development. In particular, …

Small RNAs within the developing seed of Arabidopsis thaliana
… cell and the egg cell of the unfertilized female gametophyte, finding preliminary evidence that sRNAs might move between these cells, as has been previously hypothesized. This work contributes to our understanding of the role of sRNAs within the developing seed and their relationship with …

Studies of E2s Related to Unconventional Ubiquitination in Arabidopsis thaliana
… in the formation of functional megaspore and female gametophyte. Moreover, certain ubc22 mutant plants showed distinct phenotypes in vegetative development. The RNA-seq analysis revealed that genes of different pathways were differentially affected in different subtypes of plants. Plants of …

Investigating the role of RNA 5- methylcytosine on ribosomal and transfer RNAs in Arabidopsis thaliana
… I found nop2a nop2b mutants were lethal due to female gametophyte abortion at the two to eight-nucleate stages. Reduction of NOP2A in nop2b nop2c mutants using an artificial miRNA led to a range of post-embryo phenotypes, impaired ribosome activity and reduced m5C methylation of C2268 on the 25S …
