Generation of Heat-Tolerant Pollen Tubes in Arabidopsis
This innovation is a method of genetically editing molecular mechanisms of economically important fruit crop plants, such as tomatoes, to create reproductively heat-tolerant crops. This new method involves manipulation of pollen tubes to improve the response of plants to various climate stressors. Background: Since early 2020, the U.S. Southwest has...

Identification of a Novel Pollen Tube Stimulant from Arabidopsis Pistils
This patented technology is a new in vitro assay to demonstrate that diffusible factors from tissue of a pistil stimulate pollen tube germination and growth. University of Arizona researchers isolated a partially purified fraction of Arabidopsis pistil extract that promotes these activities. Utilizing molecular weight and mass spectral patterns, they...
