Control of pollen hydration in Brassica requires continued protein synthesis, and glycosylation in necessary for intraspecific incompatibility.

Pollen hydration and self-incompatibility (SI) in Brassica have been studied by using a combination of in vivo video-microscopy and experiments with metabolic inhibitors. Experiments with cycloheximide confirm earlier observations that pollen hydration is regulated through protein synthesis. No prot...
