AB - Female gametes in flowering plants develop from a meiotic division of a precursor cell followed by mitotic divisions of one of the haploid cells to yield the gametophyte. This study identifies AGO9, a protein involved in RNA interference, as a factor required for specification of the single gametophyte. AGO9 is found not in the cell destined to be the gametophyte, but in the neighbouring companion cells, suggesting that it functions in a non-cell autonomous fashion.
