22 wrz 2022 · Understanding anther development is essential in the study of plant reproduction, controlled crop breeding, and hybrid seed production as anthers are the source of pollen and thus male gametes in flowering plants.
26 cze 2021 · We summarise new findings that illustrate the complexities of anther development and evaluate how they challenge established models of anther form and function, and how they may help to deliver future sustainable crop yields.

An overview of the structure of a typical angiosperm anther and the microsporangia within it.
Anther and pollen development have been widely studied in Arabidopsis (Wilson and Zhang 2009); it is a complex and important process that leads to the release of viable pollen and plant fertilization.
These are found in the anther, which is at the end of the stamen—the long filament that supports the anther. Figure \(\PageIndex{5}\): Shown is (a) a cross section of an anther at two developmental stages. The immature anther (top) contains four microsporangia, or pollen sacs.
The anther is a part of the flower’s male reproductive system or stamen. It carries the reproductive structures or the male gametes (pollen grains), which germinate and cause the fertilization of an ovule.
