The Genus Boechera as a Model for Apomixis Research

bioRxiv
Abstract The genus Boechera , a prominent member of the tribe Boechereae within the family Brassicaceae, has emerged as an exceptional model for apomixis research, owing to its unique evolutionary, reproductive, and genomic characteristics.

Resolving taxonomic complexity in the genus Boechera (Brassicaceae) using the Boechera Microsatellite Website: a case study of the rare triploid B. bodiensis

Annals of Botany
Abstract Background and Aims The genus Boechera (rock cress) comprises ∼75 sexual diploid taxa and >355 genetically distinct hybrid lineages, many of which reproduce asexually through apomixis.

DEVELOPMENT OF FEMALE REPRODUCTIVE STRUCTURES IN BOECHERA (BRASSICACEAE) SPECIES UNDER SEXUAL AND APOMICTIC REPRODUCTIVE MODES

БОТАНИЧЕСКИЙ ЖУРНАЛ, 2023
The results of comparative embryological study of the two species from the genus Boechera (B. falcata and B. stricta), which are characterized by a sexual mode of reproduction, and the apomictic M4B accession, an ancient natural hybrid of B. stricta × B.

Boechera or not? Phylogeny and phylogeography of eastern North American Boechera species (Brassicaceae)

TAXON, 2009
Abstract The North American genus Boechera comprises according to current taxonomic classification 110 species. Most of them are centered in western North America, with some species extending from the west into eastern North America and seven exclusively occurring in eastern

Gene Expression Differentiation Is Consistent with Local Adaptation across an Elevational Gradient in Drummond's Rockcress (Boechera stricta).

Journal of Heredity
A central goal of evolutionary biology is to understand the mechanisms conferring adaptation. Gene expression is sensitive to environmental variability; thus, investigating gene expression differentiation among populations may reveal signatures of ...

Assembly of the Boechera retrofracta Genome and Evolutionary Analysis of Apomixis-Associated Genes

open access: yesGenes, 2018
Closely related to the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana, the genus Boechera is known to contain both sexual and apomictic species or accessions. Boechera retrofracta is a diploid sexually reproducing species and is thought to be an ancestral parent ...

Differential effects of polyploidy and diploidy on fitness of apomictic Boechera

Sexual Plant Reproduction, 2012
The co-occurrence of apomixis (asexual reproduction) and polyploidy in plants has been the subject of debate in regard to the origin and evolution of asexuality. In recent years, polyploidy has been postulated as a maintenance and stabilization factor rather than as a source of apomixis origin.

Microsatellite, Hyb-Seq, and morphological studies confirm the enigmatic mustard Boechera tiehmii as an intergeneric hybrid.

American-Eurasian journal of botany
PREMISE The mustard genus Boechera (Brassicaceae) is notorious for rampant intra- and interclade hybridization, which has produced a complex reticulate network of apomictic diploid, triploid, and tetraploid hybrids.

Natural variation in circadian period associates with diverse phenological measures in Boechera stricta.

Annals of Botany
BACKGROUND AND AIMS The circadian clock is a time-keeping mechanism that detects of and responds to temporal environmental changes. Despite functional hypotheses of circadian resonance, in which the match between endogeneous circadian rhythms and ...
