The germination and tube growth of Camellia japonica pollen were stopped on a myrmicacincontaining (50–200 ppm) culture medium, but were restored again when the pollen grains were transferred to a myrmicacin‐free medium. Myrmicacin inhibits the movement of Golgi vesicles utilized for the formation of the callose layer in the pollen grain before the germination, and the growing tube tip wall.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
