Fig. 5. Expression of DUET in male meiocytes: RNA in situ hybridization of
DUET antisense RNA to sections of flower buds. (A) Expression is first seen in
sporogenous cells at anther stage 4. (B,C) Maximal expression is seen in
microsporocytes at anther stage 5. (D) Anther stage 6, meiotic cells. (E,F) No
expression is seen in the female meiocyte at stage 2-3 corresponding to
pre-meiosis. (E) Antisense; (F) sense control. Scale bars: 50 µm.
