Transcriptome Analysis of Differentially Expressed Genes at Pre-Meiotic Developmental Stage in Pennisetum Hybrids with Contrasting Modes of Reproduction [PDF]
Apomixis is an asexual reproduction through seeds where embryo develops without meiosis and fertilization. It is widely distributed throughout plant kingdom, but is more prevalent in families like Asteraceae, Rosaceae and Poaceae (Carman, 1997).

Gametophyte interaction and sexual reproduction: how plants make a zygote [PDF]
The evolutionary success of higher plants relies on a very short gametophytic phase, which underlies the sexual reproduction cycle. Sexual plant reproduction takes place in special organs of the flower: pollen, the male gametophyte, is released from the ...

Ploidy Dependent Expression of Apomixis Components in Guinea Grass (\u3cem\u3ePanicum maximum\u3c/em\u3e Jacq.) [PDF]
Apomixis is an asexual method of reproduction through seeds. The potential of apomixis has been envisaged as “asexual revolution” by virtue of its capacity to fix hybrid vigour, a much desirable feature in breeding of agricultural crops.

Apomixis: an enigma with potential applications [PDF]
Apomixis has been the focus of research in plant sciences in recent years with lot of scope for crop improvement. It results in clonal progeny without fertilization, having maternal genetic constitution.

Effects of Plant Stress on Facultative Apomixis in Boechera (Brassicaceae) [PDF]
In flowering plants, apomixis is asexual reproduction by seeds. Apomixis allows the production of offspring with the same genetic characteristics as the mother plant. Fertilization is not required.

Sporophytic ovule tissues modulate the initiation and progression of apomixis in Hieracium [PDF]
Apomixis in Hieracium subgenus Pilosella initiates in ovules when sporophytic cells termed aposporous initial (AI) cells enlarge near sexual cells undergoing meiosis.

Seeds of doubt: Mendel’s choice of Hieracium to study inheritance, a case of right plant, wrong trait [PDF]
KEY MESSAGE: In this review, we explore Gregor Mendel’s hybridization experiments with Hieracium , update current knowledge on apomictic reproduction and describe approaches now being used to develop true-breeding hybrid crops.
