Abstract
In vivo, the microspore inside the anther divides and follows the gametophytic program to form the mature pollen grain. In vitro, upon the application of a stress treatment the microspore can be deviated towards a proliferation process leading to embryogenesis, the so-called microspore embryogenesis that can be induced in anther and isolated microspore cultures (Maluszynski et al. 2003).
