The CounterACT Research Network: Basic Mechanisms and Practical Applications

Anther development: basic principles and practical applications.

Male reproductive processes in flowering plants take place in the stamen (Esau, 1977). This sporophytic organ system contains diploid cells that undergo meiosis and produce haploid male spores, or microspores. Microspores divide mitotically and differentiate into multicellular male gametophytes, or pollen grains, that contain the sperm cells. Figures 1 and 2 show that the stamen consists of two...

Practical applications of molecular research on pigs

Molecular technology can be used as an adjunct to conventional breeding programmes. The idea is that naturally occurring variation in DNA sequences (markers) can be detected in potential breeders. If this DNA variation has previously been correlated with variation in an economically important trait, such as growth or meat quality or susceptibility to disease, it can be used to assist or acceler...

Some Practical Applications of Dark Matter Research

Two practical spin-offs from the development of cryogenic dark matter detectors are presented. One in materials research, the other in biology.
