Comparison of pollen phenotype and vitality between the wild-type (WT) and the fad2–3 plants. a. Wild-type flower; b. Wild-type anthers; c. fad2–3 flower. The magnification was 5 times. d. fad2–3 anthers. The magnification was 5 times. e. Comparison of wild-type and fad2–3 mature anthers. The magnification was 5 times. f. Comparison of developing anthers from the wild-type and the fad2–3 plants; shown are de-bracted young buds collected every 4 days after bud emergence; g. Wild-type pollen grains stained by I2-KI. The magnification was 50 times. h. Wild-type pollens after acetolysis treatment. The magnification was 50 times. i. fad2–3 pollen grains stained by I2-KI. The magnification was 50 times. j. fad2–3 pollen after acetolysis treatment. The magnification was 50 times
