Wild relatives of quinoa maintain pollen viability, seed number, and grain yield under heat stress, with pollen viability potentially being a key trait to improve heat tolerance of cultivated quinoa - Xu et al.

#PlantScience 🧪
Fig. 6 (shortened, full legend in paper): Variability of in vitro pollen germination at different temperatures in cultivated quinoa and its wild relatives. Pollen grains from plants of representative accessions (see Supplementary Table S1) were incubated in germination media at temperatures varying from 22 °C to 40 °C at 2 °C intervals. (A) The relationship between in vitro pollen germination rate and temperature, fitted using general additive models (see Methods). The maximum germination rate and corresponding optimum temperature as determined by the models are shown. (B, C) Pollen tube growth during incubation at (B) 34 °C and (C) 38 °C. For C. hircinum Argentina, measurements were taken at 8, 16, and 24 h; for the other accessions, measurements were taken at 4, 8, and 12 h. Data are means (±SE), n=3. The results of two-way ANOVA to determine the effects of group (accession), incubation time, and their interactions (Int.) are shown: ***P<0.001; *P<0.05.

Soybean transformed with the sunflower gene encoding transcription factor HaHB11 show increased grain setting due to an increased number of pollinated flowers, an effect that persists under heat stress - Raineri et al.

Fig. 4.Pollen grains germinate better than the wild type under heat stress. Grains from the W82 wild type and from two transgenic lines expressing HaHB11 (H11-1 and H11-2) and a line expressing HaHB4 (H4) were incubated on germination medium at two different temperatures. (A) Representative images of pollen grains from wild type control (C), H11-1, and H4 plants at 30 °C (normal) and 45 °C (heat stress). G, germinated (solid arrows); NG, not germinated (open arrows). (B): Quantification of pollen tube lengths. (C) Percentage of germinated pollen observed at 45 °C for each genotype. Data are means (±SEM) of at least 10 (B) or four (C) biological replicates. Significant differences between the WT control and each transgenic line were determined using two-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s test: *P<0.05; **P<0.01; ***P<0.001.

Linear regression of whole-plant transpiration rate (TR, A) and canopy conductance (Gs, B) against SD SheathAb. Different colors refer to groups of genotypes belonging to one of the five families of the AB-NAM population that were phenotyped, with squares indicating the parents of the five nested association mapping (NAM) families. The BLUP values of each genotype were used in the regression analysis. ***Significant at P<0.001.
