The Boechera Genus as a Resource for Apomixis Research [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019
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.

Eragrostis curvula, a Model Species for Diplosporous Apomixis

Plants, 2021
Eragrostis curvula (Schrad.) Ness is a grass with a particular apomictic embryo sac development called Eragrostis type. Apomixis is a type of asexual reproduction that produces seeds without fertilization in which the resulting progeny is genetically ...

Apomixis technology and the paradox of sex

Trends in Plant Science, 2000
Most plant species produce genetically variable seeds by the fusion of meiotically reduced egg cells and pollen grains. However, a small proportion of seed plants produces clonal, asexual seeds by the process of apomixis. The fixation of heterosis by apomixis is of great interest for plant breeding.

Chromosomal Evolution and Apomixis in the Cruciferous Tribe Boechereae

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
The mustard family (Brassicaceae) comprises several dozen monophyletic clades usually ranked as tribes. The tribe Boechereae plays a prominent role in plant research due to the incidence of apomixis and its close relationship to Arabidopsis.

Construction of AFLP-based cosegregation groups of tetraploid Plicatula species and identification of markers linked to apomixis [PDF]

Rodriguésia, 2022
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.

Small RNA sequencing provides candidate miRNA-target pairs for revealing the mechanism of apomixis in Zanthoxylum bungeanum

BMC Plant Biology, 2021
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.

Evolution of an Apomixis-Specific Allele Class in Supernumerary Chromatin of Apomictic Boechera

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Asexual reproduction through seeds in plants (i.e., apomixis) is a heritable trait, and apomixis- linked loci have been identified in multiple species. However, direct identification of genomic elements is typically hindered as apomixis-linked loci and ...

Engineering apomixis in crops

Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 2023
AbstractApomixis is an asexual mode of reproduction through seeds where progeny are clones of the mother plants. Naturally apomictic modes of reproduction are found in hundreds of plant genera distributed across more than 30 plant families, but are absent in major crop plants.

High-frequency synthetic apomixis in hybrid rice [PDF]

, 2022
Introducing asexual reproduction through seeds – apomixis – into crop species could revolutionize agriculture by allowing F1 hybrids with enhanced yield and stability to be clonally propagated. Engineering synthetic apomixis has proven feasible in inbred
