A Review of the Developmental Processes and Selective Pressures Shaping Aperture Pattern in Angiosperms

Résumé

Pollen grains of flowering plants display a fascinating diversity of forms. The observed diversity is determined by the developmental mechanisms involved in the establishment of pollen morphological features. Pollen grains are generally surrounded by an extremely resistant wall displaying apertures that play a key role in reproduction, being the places at which pollen tube growth is initiated. Aperture number, structure, and position (collectively termed ‘aperture pattern’) are determined during microsporogenesis, which is the earliest step of pollen ontogeny. Here, we review current knowledge about aperture pattern developmental mechanisms and adaptive significance with respect to plant reproduction and how advances in these fields shed light on our understanding of aperture pattern evolution in angiosperms.
