Fertilization-induced synergid cell death by RALF12-triggered ROS production and ethylene signaling

Abstract Fertilization-dependent elimination of the persistent synergid cell is essential to block supernumerary pollen tubes and thus to avoid polyspermy in flowering plants. Little is known about the molecular mechanisms ensuring timely induction and execution of synergid cell death. We analyzed m...
