The Next Generation of Rice: Inter-Subspecific Indica-Japonica Hybrid Rice
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Rice (Oryza sativa) is an important food crop and has two subspecies, indica and japonica. Since the last century, four generations of rice varieties have been applied to rice production.

A CRISPR-Cas9-Derived Male Sterility System for Tomato Breeding
Agronomy, 2023 Male sterility can reduce cost and enable high seed purity during hybrid seed production. However, the commercial application of male sterility in hybrid seed production has not been widely used in tomatoes.

Prospects of utilization of inter-subspecific heterosis between indica and japonica rice
Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2020 The Asian cultivated rice (Oryza sativa L.) grown worldwide is divided into two subspecies, indica and japonica. It is well known that the heterosis of inter-subspecies is usually stronger than that of intra-subspecies.

Epistasis among Drosophila persimilis factors conferring hybrid male sterility with D. pseudoobscura bogotana. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 The Bateson-Dobzhansky-Muller model posits that hybrid incompatibilities result from genetic changes that accumulate during population divergence.

Aquaculture Reports, 2023 Bay scallops (Argopecten irradians) are a commercially important bivalve species for fisheries and aquaculture in China, the USA, Peru and Chile, but their small size and serious inbreeding depression restrict the sustainable development of their ...

Studies on the cold tolerance of ratoon ‘Chaling’ common wild rice
Biological Research, 2020 Background Rice is the staple food of many people around the world. However, most rice varieties, especially widely grown indica varieties and hybrids, are sensitive to cold stress.

Epistasis and hybrid sterility inSaccharomyces [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 2002 Hybrid sterility is thought to be due to deleterious epistatic interactions between genes from different species. Here we demonstrate that dominant genic incompatibility does not contribute to sterility in hybrids between Saccharomyces cerevisiae and five closely related species.

SEX-LINKED HYBRID STERILITY IN A BUTTERFLY [PDF]
Evolution, 2001 Recent studies, primarily in Drosophila, have greatly advanced our understanding of Haldane's rule, the tendency for hybrid sterility or inviability to affect primarily the heterogametic sex (Haldane 1922). Although dominance theory (Turelli and Orr 1995) has been proposed as a general explanation of Haldane's rule, this remains to be tested in female ...

Pollen- and Seed-Sterility in Hybrids [PDF]
American Journal of Botany, 1923 Sterility of hybrids in various forms and degrees is a phenomenon so frequently presented to the plant breeder and geneticist that in some form and in some degree it is rather to be expected. The first problem in its study demands a critical examination to determine in the life history the place of those conditions that bring about the sterility in ...

A novel approach identifying hybrid sterility QTL on the autosomes of Drosophila simulans and D. mauritiana. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 When species interbreed, the hybrid offspring that are produced are often sterile. If only one hybrid sex is sterile, it is almost always the heterogametic (XY or ZW) sex.
