Summary In the ogu cytoplasmic male-sterile (CMS) line of Brassica napus, stamen morphology was influenced by temperature conditions. Under a high temperature regime (27° C/23° C; day/ night) CMS stamens had a near-normal morphology, but microsporogenesis proceeded to a maximum of the microspore stage. However, compared to the normal stamens, the occurrence of sporopollenin-like deposits in the tapetum and deposition of exine on the microspores was sparse. Also, the tapetal cells of the CMS line were often highly vacuolate and failed to degenerate at the same stage as the normal. Ultrastructural changes in the mitochondrial matrix and cristae plus dilation of the endoplasmic reticulum, which occurred during development in sporogenous tissues of the normal line, were often lacking or mistimed in the mutant. Due to extensive variation, even between adjacent locules, the cytological differences between the normal and CMS anthers cannot be ascribed as the cause of male sterility in the ogu CMS line of B. napus, rather they may be the consequence of it.
