Plasma membrane LRR receptor-like serine threonine kinase expressed during embryogenesis in locules until stage 6 anthers, with higher expression in the tapetal cell layer. SERK1 and SERK2 receptor kinases function redundantly as an important control point for sporophytic development controlling male gametophyte production. later
