Partitioning Apomixis Components to Understand and Utilize Gametophytic Apomixis [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019 Apomixis is a method of reproduction to generate clonal seeds and offers tremendous potential to fix heterozygosity and hybrid vigor. The process of apomictic seed development is complex and comprises three distinct components, viz., apomeiosis (leading ...

Options for Engineering Apomixis in Plants
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 In plants, embryogenesis and reproduction are not strictly dependent on fertilization. Several species can produce embryos in seeds asexually, a process known as apomixis.

International Journal of Fruit Science, 2023 Apomixis is a mode of asexual reproduction through seed. Apomixis can be classified into two types – gametophytic and sporophytic apomixis. The phenomenon of apomixis in higher plants is limited; however, it seems to play a critical role in the genetic ...

Polyembryonic or Apomictic Seeds Enable Fig Trees to Establish New Populations Without Their Pollinating Wasps, a Case Observation in Ficus gasparriniana [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionFig–wasp coevolution has been extensively studied as a fascinating case of extreme plant–insect codiversification, yet little is known about how fig trees reproduce without pollinating fig wasps. This study provides direct evidence that fig trees sustain

Recent Progress on Plant Apomixis for Genetic Improvement [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular SciencesApomixis is a reproductive process that produces clonal seeds while bypassing meiosis (or apomeiosis) without undergoing fertilization (or pseudo-fertilization).

Morphological and molecular evidence supporting advantages of apomictic seed production in castor bean (Ricinus communis L.) [PDF]
BMC Plant BiologyBackground Ricinus communis L. is a large plant from the spurge family (Euphorbiaceae), grown for industrial and medicinal purposes. In this research, progenies obtained from three types of reproduction, including apomixis, self-pollination, and open ...
