This paper develops a method to isolate male gametophyte cells from tomato using fluorescence-activated cell sorting with a double fluorescent marker line.

This study identifies OsbHLH089 and OsbHLH094 as regulators of OsSLR1 levels, which are critical for male reproductive fitness in rice.

This study identifies PpLDCP3 as a key protein in moss dispersal unit formation, showing its role in gametogenesis, sporogenesis, and RNA metabolism.

The paper identifies a conserved genetic program in male germ cells across species, revealing 161 new spermatogenesis genes and three potential causes of human infertility.

This study shows that dMLL3/4 is essential for the transition to embryo fate at fertilization by promoting gene expression needed for zygotic genome assembly.
