Abstract
The potentiality of microspores or young pollen grains to deviate from the normal gametophytic development to embryo-genic pathway and sporophyte formation raises the possibility to use the pollen system as an unique tool to study fundamental questions of cytodifferentiation and developmental biology. From this aspect, isolated pollen culture presents a number of advantages over anther culture as it eliminates uncontrolled effects of anther wall and enables directly affect pollen grains by changes of culture conditions.
