Apomixis in agriculture: the quest for clonal seeds.
, 2001 Apomixis, or asexual reproduction through seeds, is a natural trait that could have an immense positive impact on crop production. Apomictic breeding strategies could allow the fixation and indefinite propagation of any desired genotype, however complex.

A pattern of unique embryogenesis occurring via apomixis in Carya cathayensis
, 2012 Apomixis represents an alteration of classical sexual plant reproduction to produce seeds that have essentially clonal embryos. In this report, hickory (Carya cathayensis Sarg.), which is an important oil tree, is identified as a new apomictic species ...

Apomixis in flowering plants: an overview [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 2003 Apomixis is a common feature of perennial plants, which occurs in ca . 60% of the British flora, but has been largely ignored by reproductive theoreticians. Successful individuals may cover huge areas, and live to great ages, favoured by ‘symmetrical’ selection.

, 2002 A mapping population of Paspalum simplex segregating for apomixis (asexual reproduction through seeds) was screened with AFLPs to find apomixis-linked markers. Four AFLPs linked to apomixis in coupling phase were found.

Variation of microsporogenesis in sexual, apomictic and recombinant plants of Poa pratensis L
Caryologia, 2022 Apomixis is a rather widespread phenomenon in plants. It is defined as the asexual formation of a seed from the maternal tissues of the ovule, avoiding the processes of meiosis and fertilization.

Apomixis in diploid × triploid Tripsacum dactyloides hybrids
, 1991 Apomixis can hinder plant improvement if sexual or apomictic germ plasm of the appropriate ploidy level, required for effective manipulation of apomixis, is not available.
