As Arabidopsis flowers mature, specialized cells within the anthers undergo meiosis, leading to the production of haploid microspores that differentiate into mature pollen grains, each containing two sperm cells for double fertilization. During pollination, the pollen grains are dispersed from the anthers to the stigma for subsequent fertilization. Transcriptomic studies have identified a large number of genes expressed over the course of male reproductive development and subsequent functional characterization of some have revealed their involvement in floral meristem establishment, floral organ growth, sporogenesis, meiosis, microsporogenesis, and pollen maturation.

- The study investigates the genetic diversity of dessert apple varieties in Europe by analyzing over 2,400 accessions from 14 collections using 16 SSR markers.
- Results indicate that this diversity is organized into three main groups with some substructure, reflecting geographical origins and uses such as cider production.
- The findings emphasize the importance of historical migration, selection, and adaptations in shaping the genetic variations within European apple germplasm, which could be significant for future breeding efforts.
The genetic diversity of 23 chickpea accessions representing Kyrgyz landraces and cultivars, ICARDA breeding lines, Spanish and Turkish cultivars was characterized using nine microsatellite (SSR) markers which generated a total of 122 alleles. The number of alleles (Na) per locus varied from 9 to 20. The observed heterozygosity (Ho) ranged between 0.
