MYB98 is required for pollen tube guidance and synergid cell differentiation in Arabidopsis. Kasahara RD, Portereiko MF, Sandaklie-Nikolova L, Rabiger DS, Drews GN. Plant Cell. 2005 Nov;17(11):2981-92. ...... cells, and mutations in this gene affect the female gametophyte specifically. myb98 female gametophytes are affected in two unique features of the synergid cell, pollen tube guidance and the filiform apparatus, but are otherwise normal. MYB98 also is expressed in trichomes and endosperm. Homozygous myb98 mutants exhibit no sporophytic defects, including trichome and endosperm defects. Together, these data suggest that MYB98 controls the development of specific features within ...... |
