This project investigates how differentiated pollen cells can be induced to develop into embryos through stress treatments. By studying the molecular changes during this process in Brassica napus, the research aims to enhance understanding of plant totipotency and improve plant breeding techniques.
This proposal aims to unravel to signalling pathways that underlie induced plant cell totipotency, by combining cell and molecular techniques to chart the changes that take place as differentiated pollen cells are induced to switch developmental pathways and form embryos in culture.Immature male gametophytes can be induced to change their developmental fate from pollen to haploid embryo development when exposed to stress treatments in vitro.
This process (microspore embryogenesis) is widely expl…
