Annotation | UPEX1 and IRX9L function in exine patterning in developing microspores by modulating the synthesis or modification of components of the primexine wall layer. Data support a model in which xylan and AGP cell wall components synthesized in tapetum are incorporated into the primexine wall and play roles in primexine development and anchoring of sporopollenin to the microspore surface early in microspore development.
