Abstract:
:The growing pollen tubes of tomato and tobacco were exposed to electrical fields and the effect on the direction of growth was measured. They responded by turning toward the positive electrode (anode) and gave a detectable response in fields as small as 0.1 mV/tube diameter. The sites of germination of tobacco pollen grains were also affected by applied fields; the pollen tubes tended to emerge from the anodal side. This effect was detectable at a field of 0.4 mV/grain diameter.

Six nodal-related genes have been identified in Xenopus, but only one, nodal, has been identified in the mouse.
