Abstract
This paper reports the first observation and quantitative analysis of single cell pollen tube guidance by the signaling molecule realized on the microfluidic device. Design and dimensions of the microfluidic device were optimized for handling individual pollen tube of Torenia Fournieri. Concentration of LURE peptide, the signaling molecule for pollen tube guidance, in the reaction chamber was proved to have appropriate gradient for the guidance. Finally, pollen tube guidance by LURE peptide was successfully observed and analyzed under quantitatively controlled conditions.
