Publication of this paper is supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (30624808) and Science Publication Foundation of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.This manuscript was largely based on a lecture given at Changsha in May 2006 and is not meant to be a comprehensive review of the field of anther and pollen development. We apologize for not including some of the recent works because of time constraints. We thank B. Bliss, B. Feng, Y. Hu, A. Surce and A. Wijeratne for helpful comments on the manuscript.
Anther development in flowering plants involves the formation of several cell types, including the tapetal and pollen mother cells. The use of genetic and molecular tools has led to the identification and characteriza...
