Unraveling the distinct germination processes of sporopollenin-based pollen grains and spores through morphological analyses upon natural nano-architectonics process

The outermost exine capsules of many pollen and spore grains are composed of a chemically inert yet mechanically robust sporopollenin biopolymer. These dynamically expansible and foldable capsules have great potential as renewable functional biomaterials with industrial applications. However, the me...
