Fig. 6

Expression pattern of MS33. (a) qRT-PCR analysis of MS33 in different tissues and stages of pollen development. Data are presented as mean ± SE (n = 3). (b-g) In situ analysis of MS33 expression in wild-type anthers. (b) to (f) MS33 is highly expressed in tapetal cells of anthers at the premeiosis (b), meiocyte (c), tetrad (d), uninucleate (e), and binucleate stages (f). (g) anthers at tetrad stage hybridized with the MS33 sense probe. Ms., meiospores; Msp, microspore; T, tapetum; Tds, tetrads. Bars = 100 μm
