Epistasis and hybrid sterility inSaccharomyces [PDF]
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.

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.

Pollen- and Seed-Sterility in Hybrids [PDF]
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 ...

Potential Association of Reactive Oxygen Species With Male Sterility in Peach
Male sterility is an important agronomic trait for hybrid vigor utilization and hybrid seed production, but its underlying mechanisms remain to be uncovered.

Table_1_Understanding the Nature of Hybrid Sterility and Divergence of Asian Cultivated Rice.DOCX
Intraspecific hybrid sterility is a common form of postzygotic reproductive isolation in Asian cultivated rice, which is also the major obstacle to utilize the strong heterosis in the rice breeding program.

High-resolution genome-wide dissection of the two rules of speciation in Drosophila. [PDF]
Postzygotic reproductive isolation is characterized by two striking empirical patterns. The first is Haldane's rule--the preferential inviability or sterility of species hybrids of the heterogametic (XY) sex.

Prdm9 intersubspecific interactions in hybrid male sterility of house mouse [PDF]
The classical definition posits hybrid sterility as a phenomenon when two parental taxa each of which is fertile produce a hybrid that is sterile.

Gene, protein and network of male sterility in rice
Rice is one of the most important model crop plants whose heterosis has been well exploited in commercial hybrid seed production via a variety of types of male sterile lines. Hybrid rice cultivation area is steadily expanding around the world, especially
