Characterisation and utilization of three distinct male sterile systems in marigold (Tagetes erecta)
Three distinct male sterile systems were identified in marigold (Tagetus erecta L.) and classified as apetaloid, petaloid and gynomonoecious types based on their floral morphology.

Plant non-coding RNAs function in pollen development and male sterility
Male sterility is classified as either cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) or genic male sterility (GMS). Generally, CMS involves mitochondrial genomes interacting with the nuclear genome, while GMS is caused by nuclear genes alone.

Nuclear–Cytoplasmic male-sterility in diploid dandelions [PDF]
Male-sterility was found in diploid dandelions from two widely separated populations from France, and its inheritance was analysed by crossing a diploid male-sterile dandelion to diploid sexuals and triploid apomicts. Nuclear genetic variation, found in full-sib families, segregated for male-fertility, partial male-sterility, and full male-sterility ...

A novel source of cytoplasmic male sterility in Calibrachoa pubescens
Calibrachoa pubescens is a species native from the south of Brazil, Uruguay and northeast Argentina. An accession identified as 7.3.1.1 was collected at San Martín Department in Corrientes Province, Argentina and is included in the calibrachoa breeding ...

HETEROGENEITY OF MAIZE CYTOPLASMIC GENOMES AMONG MALE-STERILE CYTOPLASMS [PDF]
ABSTRACT Maize mitochondrial and chloroplast DNA's were prepared from normal (fertile) lines or single crosses and from members of the T, C, and S groups of male-sterile cytoplasms. Restriction endonucleases HindIII, BamI, EcoRI, and SalI were used to restrict the DNA, and the resultant fragments were electrophoresed in agarose gels. The

A genetic basis for a postmeiotic X versus Y chromosome intragenomic conflict in the mouse. [PDF]
Intragenomic conflicts arise when a genetic element favours its own transmission to the detriment of others. Conflicts over sex chromosome transmission are expected to have influenced genome structure, gene regulation, and speciation.

Genetically engineered cytoplasmic male sterility
Cytoplasmic male sterility, conditioned by some maternally inherited plant mitochondrial genomes, is the most expedient method to produce uniform populations of pollen-sterile plants on a commercial scale. Plant mitochondrial genomes are not currently amenable to genetic transformation, but genetic manipulation of the plastid genome allows engineering ...

Extensive Structural Variations Between Mitochondrial Genomes of CMS and Normal Peppers (Capsicum Annuum L.) Revealed by Complete Nucleotide Sequencing [PDF]
Cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) is an inability to produce functional pollen that is caused by mutation of the mitochondrial genome. Comparative analyses of mitochondrial genomes of lines with and without CMS in several species have revealed structural ...
