Main conclusionArabidopsis GR1 and NTRA function in pollen tube penetrating the stigma into the transmitting tract during pollination.AbstractDuring pollination, recognition between pollen (tube) and stigma mediates the hydration and germination of pollen, as well as the growth of the pollen tube on the stigma.Arabidopsisglutathione reductase 1 (GR1) and NADPH-dependent thioredoxin reductase A (NTRA) are involved in regulating cell redox hemostasis. BothGR1andNTRAare expressed in pollen, but their roles in pollen germination and the growth of the pollen tube need further investigation. In this study, we performed pollination experiments and found that theArabidopsis gr1/+ntra/–andgr1/– ntra/+ double mutation compromised the transmission of male gametophytes. Pollen morphology and viability of the mutants did not show obvious abnormalities. Additionally, the pollen hydration and germination of the double mutants on solid pollen germination medium were comparable to those of the wild type. However, the pollen tubes withgr1 ntradouble mutation were unable to penetrate the stigma and enter the transmitting tract when they grew on the surface of the stigma. Our results indicate thatGR1andNTRAplay a role in regulating the interaction between the pollen tube and the stigma during pollination.
