During angiosperm microsporogenesis, callose serves as a temporary wall to separate microsporocytes and newly formed microspores in the tetrad. Abnormal callose deposition and dissolution can lead to degeneration of developing microspores. However, genes and their regulation in callose metabolism during microsporogenesis still remain largely unclear. Here, we demonstrated that the Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) CALLOSE DEFECTIVE MICROSPORE1 (CDM1) gene, encoding a tandem CCCH-type zinc finge ...[more]
