The results showed that there were no significant differences in anther development between Ningqi No.1 and its haploids at the stage of pollen mother cell, and tetrads were formed successfully after the meiosis stage. The tetrads of Ningqi No.1 could release microspores. At the same time, the tapetal cells can provide nutrition for the development of the microspores, which eventually developed into mature pollen grains. Although the haploids could also release microspores at the tetrad stage, the tapetal cells degraded in advance, which made the released microspores unable to develop into mature pollen grains, resulting in pollen abortion of haploids.展开更多
