Genetic characterization of hadad, a mutant disrupting female gametogenesis in Arabidopsis thaliana

Moore, J. M., Calzada, J. P., Gagliano, W., Grossniklaus, U. (1997) Genetic characterization of hadad, a mutant disrupting female gametogenesis in Arabidopsis thaliana. Cold Spring Harbor Symposia on Quantitative Biology, 62. pp. 35-47. ISSN 0091-7451 (Print)

Abstract

The plant life cycle alternates between a diploid and a haploid generation, the spore-producing sporophyte and the gamete-producing gametophyte. Unlike in animals, where meiotic products differentiate directly into gametes, the haploid spores of plants divide mitotically to form a multicellular haploid organism. The differentiation of gametes occurs later in the development of the gametophyte.
