Supplemental Figure 1 - Pollen tube guidance and burst at the embryo-sac micropylar end of wt, glc/GLC and glc/GLC;450.3 ovules. A) Flowers from both genotypes were emasculated and pollinated 24 hours later with pollen of
LAT52::GUS pollen specific marker. Pistils were sampled at the indicated time points after pollination and scored for GUS
presence at the micropylar end of the embryo-sac. In each time point, 160-240 ovules per genotype were examined. Asterisks on
column of the 8HAP time point indicate statistical significance from glc/GLC (Fisher exact test p values : * 3.9e-9, **1.2e-7), the
differences in all other comparisons were not statistically significant (p>0.05). At 8HAP 230 glc/GLC ovules were sampled, out of
which 148 were GUS positives. We can expect 115 of these ovules to be GLC. Since the arrival rate of pollen tubes at the
micropyle of WT ovules at 8 HAP was 91.1%, we estimate that 105 of the GUS positives were due to GLC ovules, and the
remaining 43 GUS positives were from the glc ovules. Thus, the pollen tube arrival was estimated to be 37.4% for the glc ovules
(43/115, 37.4%), and that an estimated 62.6% of the glc mutant ovules did not have pollen tube arrival at this time point.
B) Representative images from the 8 hours after pollination time point. In glc/GLC pistils two types of unvisited ovules were
observed : the pollen tube reached the funiculus but not the micropyle (top ovule, right side image), the pollen tube did not reach
the funiculus (top ovule, middle image). The percentage of occurrences of the two types is indicated inside black boxes (scale bars
50 μm). Black arrows point to pollen tube (PT) or indicate pollen tube burst (B).

Emasculated flowers were pollinated with pollen of the HTR10 sperm-specific RFP marker. Sperm presence
in the embryo-sac was detected in ovules 24 hours later by fluorescence microscope using the red
fluorescence filter as in material and methods. Observations were made on 10 glc/GLC pistils and 7 for wt.

Supplemental Figure 7 - Alternative modes of action of At1g65450 isoforms in central cell – sperm cell interaction. 1- At1g65450 isoforms might be involved in enzymatic reaction leading to formation of signaling molecule X
which is needed for communication with the sperm cell. Molecule X might act in the CC cytoplasm, CC
plasmalemma or be translocated to the synergid cell.
2- At1g65450 isoforms might inhibit protein complex Y which negatively regulates the communication with
the sperm cell. Complex Y site of action might be in the CC cytoplasm, CC plasmalemma or be translocated.
Complex Y might effect the communication of the sperm cell with the central through mediator signal Z .
