Partitioning Apomixis Components to Understand and Utilize Gametophytic Apomixis [PDF]
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 ...

Genetic mechanisms of apomixis [PDF]
The introduction of apomixis to crops would allow desirable genotypes to be propagated while preventing undesirable gene flow, but so far there has been little success in transferring this trait from a natural apomict to another species.

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

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 ...

The Boechera Genus as a Resource for Apomixis Research [PDF]
The genera Boechera (A. Löve et D. Löve) and Arabidopsis, the latter containing the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana, belong to the same clade within the Brassicaceae family.

Molecular Basis of Apomixis in Plants [PDF]
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.

Construction of AFLP-based cosegregation groups of tetraploid Plicatula species and identification of markers linked to apomixis [PDF]
Most species of Plicatula are important native forages. This work aimed to build framework cosegregation groups of the apomictic tetraploid race of Paspalum guenoarum cv. Rojas and localize the locus controlling apomixis in the species.

Background Apomixis is a form of asexual reproduction that produces offspring without the need for combining male and female gametes, and the offspring have the same genetic makeup as the mother.
