From gametes to zygote: Mechanistic advances and emerging possibilities in plant reproduction

Celebrating the American Society of Plant Biologists centennial anniversary: A compendium of review articles in plant biology

“…Two reviews focus on aspects of plant reproduction. Zhong et al (2024) review major events in plant reproduction, including gametic differentiation to pollen-pistil interaction, fertilization, and early zygotic events in “From gametes to zygote: Mechanistic advances and emerging possibilities in plant reproduction.” In “Molecular basis and evolutionary drivers of endosperm-based hybridization barriers,” Bente and Köhler (2024) focus on the endosperm, which plays a key role in supporting embryo growth and germination in flowering plants. Rounding out the set in Plant Physiology are 2 reviews covering topics in cell biology and synthetic biology.…”
