    Pollen is a male gametophyte of angiosperms. Following meiosis, the microspore undergoes an asymmetric division called pollen mitosis I (PMI), which produces two cells of different sizes: a large vegetative cell and a small generative cell. Polarized nuclear migration and positioning during PMI are important for successful pollen development and cell differentiation. However, analyzing the pollen development process in real-time is challenging in many model plants with tricellular pollen, includingArabidopsisand rice. In this study, we established a method for live confocal imaging of microtubule and actin dynamics using suspension cultures with biolistic delivery of plasmid DNAs during PMI inNicotiana benthamiana(Bentham’s tobacco), containing bicellular pollen. Pharmacological studies have indicated that actin filaments are crucial for microspore nuclear positioning before PMI, cell plate expansion during cytokinesis, and chromatin dispersion in vegetative cell nucleus after PMI. By contrast, inhibition of microtubule assembly resulted in abnormal chromosome segregation and nuclear behavior after PMI, although nuclear positioning and asymmetric division were observed. Ourin vitrolive cell imaging system for PMI provides insights into the importance of cytoskeletal regulation in asymmetric division and differentiation during pollen development.

    Abstract

    In the pistil of flowering plants, each ovule usually associates with a single pollen tube for fertilization. This one-to-one pollen tube guidance, which contributes to polyspermy blocking and efficient seed production, is largely different from animal chemotaxis of many sperms to one egg. However, the functional mechanisms underlying the directional cues and polytubey blocks in the depths of the pistil remain unknown. Here, we develop a two-photon live imaging method to directly observe pollen tube guidance in the pistil of Arabidopsis thaliana, clarifying signaling and cellular behaviors in the one-to-one guidance. Ovules are suggested to emit multiple signals for pollen tubes, including an integument-dependent directional signal that reaches the inner surface of the septum and adhesion signals for emerged pollen tubes on the septum. Not only FERONIA in the septum but ovular gametophytic FERONIA and LORELEI, as well as FERONIA- and LORELEI-independent repulsion signal, are involved in polytubey blocks on the ovular funiculus. However, these funicular blocks are not strictly maintained in the first 45 min, explaining previous reports of polyspermy in flowering plants.

    ABSTRACT

    In angiosperms, pollen tube guidance allows sperm cell delivery to the female gametes within the ovule, which are deeply embedded in a flower. However, when an ovary includes multiple pollen tubes and ovules, it is unclear how each ovule is fertilized one-to-one by a pollen tube. Here, our two-photon imaging revealed the pollen tube dynamics in living ovaries. The number of pollen tubes and ovule maturity affected the target selection among multiple ovules. On the inner surface of the septum epidermis within the transmitting tract, pollen tube behavior and emergence were regulated by the ovular sporophytic signals. In funicular guidance, the second pollen tube was strictly repelled by the FERONIA and LORELEI-dependent gametophytic signal, especially more than 45 minutes after the first pollen tube had passed. Such highly spatiotemporal regulation mechanisms in the one-to-one pollen tube guidance may allow angiosperms to produce more offspring in nature.

    In this study, Nicotiana benthamiana, a type of dicotyledonous plant, was used to establish a method for confocal live imaging of the pollen development process with transient gene delivery. This made it possible to analyze asymmetric division and intracellular polarity of pollen. We established a method for real-time imaging of nuclear and cytoplasmic divisions and quantified intracellular structure and polarity. Based on the findings in Arabidopsis, we introduced genes involved in asymmetric division and differentiation and found that some specific localizations and phenotypes can be analyzed, such as inhibition or promotion of asymmetric division and differentiation.
