Ovule Transcriptome Analysis Discloses Deregulation of Genes and Pathways in Sexual and Apomictic Limonium Species (Plumbaginaceae). [PDF]
Genes (Basel), 2023 The genus Limonium Mill. (sea lavenders) includes species with sexual and apomixis reproductive strategies, although the genes involved in these processes are unknown.

Asexual reproduction through seeds: the complex case of diplosporous apomixis [PDF]
, 2023 Apomixis is considered a potentially revolutionary tool to generate high-quality food at a lower cost and shorter developmental time due to clonal seed production through apomeiosis and parthenogenesis.

Molecular Basis of Apomixis in Plants [PDF]
, 2022 Apomixis is the consequence of a concerted mechanism that harnesses the sexual machinery and coordinates developmental steps in the ovule to produce an asexual (clonal) seed.

Apomictic and sexual germline development differ with respect to cell cycle, transcriptional, hormonal and epigenetic regulation. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2014 Seeds of flowering plants can be formed sexually or asexually through apomixis. Apomixis occurs in about 400 species and is of great interest for agriculture as it produces clonal offspring. It differs from sexual reproduction in three major aspects: (1)

Widespread application of apomixis in agriculture requires further study of natural apomicts. [PDF]
iScienceApomixis, or asexual reproduction through seeds, is frequent in nature but does not exist in any major crop species, yet the phenomenon has captivated researchers for decades given its potential for clonal seed production and plant breeding. A discussion

Pistil transcriptome analysis to disclose genes and gene products related to aposporous apomixis in Hypericum perforatum L. [PDF]
, 2017 Unlike sexual reproduction, apomixis encompasses a number of reproductive strategies,which permit maternal genome inheritance without genetic recombination and syngamy.

Apomeiosis inAcinetospora (phaeophyceae, ectocarpales) [PDF]
Helgoländer Meeresuntersuchungen, 1986 Acinetospora crinita from the Mediterranean Sea has been studied in laboratory cultures. The plants formed monospores and unilocular sporangia. Both monospores and zoids from unilocular sporangia developed to new plants with the same habitus and chromosome number (average ca 47).

Inheritance of apomeiosis (diplospory) in fleabanes (Erigeron, Asteraceae) [PDF]
Heredity, 2004 Unreduced egg formation (apomeiosis) in flowering plants is rare except when it is coupled with parthenogenesis to yield gametophytic apomixis via apospory or diplospory. Results from genetic mapping studies in diverse apomictic taxa suggest that apomeiosis and parthenogenesis are genetically linked, a finding that is compatible with the conventional ...

Harnessing the developmental potential of nucellar cells: Barriers and opportunities [PDF]
, 2004 Angiosperm nucellar cells can either use or avoid meiosis in vivo, depending on the developmental context. This unique ability contrasts with the conditions required in vitro, either for a reconstituted oocyte to avoid meiosis and produce clones by ...
