Transmission electron micrographs of anthers at stage 10 in LYPJ and SY63 plants. A, B, C, and D show anther locules (scale bar = 20 μm); E, F, G, and H show individual microspore (scale bar =5 μm); I, J, K, and L show anther walls (scale bar = 5 μm); M, N, O, P show pollen exine (scale bar = 2 μm); Q, R, S, T show Ubisch bodies and tapetum cells (scale bar = 2 μm). Ep, epidermis; En, endothecium; Msp, microspores; Ta, tapetal layer; Ex, pollen exine; Ne, nexine; Te, tectum; Ba, bacula; Ub, Ubisch bodies. CK, control temperature; HT, high temperature
