Treatment ID:TR002154
Treatment Summary:For hydrated pollen and germinated pollen samples, mature pollen grains were germinated in vitro according to a previously described pollen transcriptome study (Wang et al., 2008). In brief, pollen pellets were washed with 1 ml of liquid Pollen Germination Medium (PGM, composed of 15% (w/v) sucrose, 1.5 mM boric acid, 0.8 mM MgSO4, 1 mM KCl, 5 mM MES, 0.05% (w/v) lactalbumin hydrolysate, 10 µM myo-inositol, 5 mM CaCl2) before they were resuspended in 30 µl of liquid PGM and subsequently cultured in Petri dishes (35 mm in diameter). A 70 µm mesh was used to cover the pollen droplet to create a thin layer for optimal germination for each Petri dish. The Petri dishes were covered and placed in the dark for 45 min or 4 h and collected as hydrated pollen or germinated pollen, respectively.
