INTRODUCTION
In a previous review of male gametophyte development (McCormick, 1993), it was noted that the two areas posed by Mascarenhas (1975) as fruitful areas for future research were the following. What are the differences in the two cytoplasms that determine the different cell fates of the generative and vegetative cells? And what are the functions of pollen-specific proteins? Now, 10 years later, the genome sequences of Arabidopsis and rice have been completed. There are extensive EST databases for many plants and several data sets from microarray hybridizations. There are extensive re...
