1 Introduction In the face of rising global temperatures, heat waves have become increasingly severe and frequent, impacting the growth and development of plants (Hatfield and Prueger 2015). The sensitivity of crucial stages in plant development, such as the gametophytic phase, to heat stress can negatively affect reproductive processes (Hedhly 2011; Sinha et al. 2021; Yadav et al. 2022).

Adaptation and acclimation of gametophytic traits to heat stress in a widely distributed wild plant along a steep climatic gradient

Abstract Climate change-induced heat waves often result in reduced seed yields and quality via high-temperature effects in the gametophytic phase. Surprisingly, the ability of pollen and ovules, particularly among wild plant populations, to adapt or acclimate to heat stress remains poorly understood. To address this gap, we examined the adaptive and acclimation potential of six gametophytic traits in eleven distinct populations of wild Silene vulgaris across a temperature gradient in Europe.

Patterns and Drivers of Pollen Temperature Tolerance

| Wiley Online Library Verified
1 Introduction Globally, there is a growing concern in the scientific community about the adverse impacts of climate change on the reproduction processes of plants (Hedhly, Hormaza, and Herrero 2009; Fahad et al. 2017; Piao et al. 2019). Climate change-driven extremes in temperature, such as cold spells and heatwaves occurring during critical plant developmental stages related to seed production, consistently lead to diminished seed quality and quantity (Neuner et al.
