A study of molecular and genetic mechanisms mediating the formation of twin sperm cells in Arabidopsis thaliana

In flowering plants, the male gametophyte produces a pair of functional sperm cells that are transported to the embryo sac for double fertilisation. Asymmetric division of the microspore establishes the germline and division of the germ cell results in two sperm cells, however, the molecular mechani...
