The Pollen Tube. A Cellular and Molecular Perspective. 2006. (Plant Cell Monographs, Volume 3). 2 col. illustr. 40 b/w illustr. X, 295 p. gr8vo. Hardcover.
The diversity of techniques and methodologies currently used to studypollen and pollen tube growth is recflected in this book written bybiochemists, cell biologist, molecular biologists and geneticists. Theirdifferent perspectives demonstrate that pollen tubes are excellent models for plant cell research, particularly suitable for investigationson cell tip growth and polarization, signal transduction, channel andion flux activity, gene expression, cytoskeleton and wall structure,membrane dynamics and even cell-cell communication.
