Abstract

Highlights: [•] We describe a new pollen tube growth assay using a microchannel device. [•] The microchannel restricts the growth of the pollen tube to a single focal plane. [•] The growth of each pollen tube can be observed under a microscope and quantified. [•] This method might enable exploring the effects of signaling molecules on pollen tube.
