Anther and pollen : from biology to biotechnology
Material type: TextPublication details: Berlin Springer-Verlag 1999Description: ix, 263pISBN: 3-540-64986-7; 9783540649861Subject(s): Pollen- Biotechnology | Anther- BiotechnologyDDC classification: 575.6 Summary: Pollen, the plant structure most widely used by humans, is a key structure in plant reproduction giving rise to fruits and seeds. Moreover, the biotechnological use of pollen is of great importance for plant breeders since it allows to obtain varieties with better utilization and yield. In the first part, the successive steps of pollen development in the anther from floral induction to pollen germination and fertilization are thoroughly examined; the second part is devoted to pollen behaviour in vitro.Item type | Current library | Collection | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode |
