Molecular Ecology, Volume 30, Issue 11, Page 2659-2675, June 2021., 2021 Abstract Geographical parthenogenesis (GP) describes the phenomenon that apomicts tend to have larger distribution areas and/or occur at higher altitudes or latitudes compared to sexual relatives. However, the complex effects of genome‐wide heterozygosity, ploidy, reproduction mode (sexual vs.

Skipping sex: A nonrecombinant genomic assemblage of complementary reproductive modules
BioEssays, Volume 43, Issue 1, January 2021., 2021 Asexuality arises through developmental alterations with apparently unrelated origins. We show the occurrence of asexual animals and plants have a common genetic and developmental basis on a single nonrecombinant assemblage of genomic elements altering complementary reproductive modules.

Harnessing wild relatives of pearl millet for germplasm enhancement: Challenges and opportunities
Crop Science, Volume 61, Issue 1, Page 177-200, January/February 2021., 2021 Abstract Pearl millet [Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.] is one of the world's hardiest warm‐season cereal crop and is cultivated mainly in the semi‐arid tropics of Asia and Africa for food, feed, fodder, and brewing. It is mainly cultivated for its gluten‐free grains with high content and better quality of nutrients.

Evolution of the apomixis transmitting chromosome in
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2011 Background Apomixis is an intriguing trait in plants that results in maternal clones through seed reproduction. Apomixis is an elusive, but potentially revolutionary, trait for plant breeding and hybrid seed production.

Genetic fine-mapping of DIPLOSPOROUS in Taraxacum (dandelion; Asteraceae) indicates a duplicated DIP-gene [PDF]
, 2010 Background DIPLOSPOROUS (DIP) is the locus for diplospory in Taraxacum, associated to unreduced female gamete formation in apomicts. Apomicts reproduce clonally through seeds, including apomeiosis, parthenogenesis, and autonomous or pseudogamous ...

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.

Pistil transcriptome analysis to disclose genes and gene products related to aposporous apomixis in Hypericum perforatum L. [PDF]
, 2017 Unlike sexual reproduction, apomixis encompasses a number of reproductive strategies,which permit maternal genome inheritance without genetic recombination and syngamy.

Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014 In Cichorium intybus L., the mode of reproduction could be at the same time sexual and apomicbic. This could explain the contradictions existing in the interpretation of the heritaibidity of the characters in this species.
