Abstract Anther dehiscence is an important characteristic at the late st age of anther development．In crop production，abnormal anther dehiscence can directly affect pollination and fertilization，thus influence the crop yield．Combining the plant anther development progress，this paper summarizes the mechanism of anther dehiscence from each anther organizational structure，cell differentiation，plant hormones and transcription factors，and puts forward directions for future study.
