Gamete Attachment Requires GEX2 for Successful Fertilization in Arabidopsis

Fertilization requires recognition, attachment, and membrane fusion between gametes. In metazoans, rapidly evolving surface proteins contribute to gamete recognition and adhesion [1]. Flowering plants evolved a double fertilization process wherein two immotile sperm cells are delivered to female gam...
