Precise coordination between stamen and pistil development is essential to
make a fertile flower. Mutations impairing stamen filament elongation, pol-
len maturation, or anther dehiscence will cause male sterility. Deficiency in
plant hormone gibberellin (GA) causes male sterility due to accumulation of
