Abstract
- We describe a new pollen tube growth assay using a microchannel device.
- The microchannel restricts the growth of the pollen tube to a single focal plane.
- The growth of each pollen tube can be observed under a microscope and quantified.
- This method might enable exploring the effects of signaling molecules on pollen tube.
