Characterisation and utilization of three distinct male sterile systems in marigold (Tagetes erecta) [PDF]

open access: yesThe Indian Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2016
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.

Engineered Dwarf Male-Sterile Rice: A Promising Genetic Tool for Facilitating Recurrent Selection in Rice [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Rice is a crop feeding half of the world’s population. With the continuous raise of yield potential via genetic improvement, rice breeding has entered an era where multiple genes conferring complex traits must be efficiently manipulated to increase rice ...

Small RNA profiles of the rice PTGMS line Wuxiang S reveal miRNAs involved in the fertility transition

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2016
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play key roles in the regulation of plant growth and developmental processes. In this study, the RNA-seq technique was employed to examine the expression profiles of miRNAs in a novel rice photo-thermo sensitive generic male sterile ...

Inheritance of male sterility in apricot

open access: yesInternational Journal of Horticultural Science, 2001
Progenies (total of 1,114 seedlings) from crosses representing all possible genotypic combinations between 4 male-fertile and 1 male-sterile apricot parents were scored for the male sterility trait.

A dominant gene for male sterility in Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
A natural male sterile mutant of Salvia miltiorrhiza (Labiatae, Sh-B) was found during field survey in 2002. Our objective was to analyze its genetic mechanism for producing F1 hybrid seeds and to develop a molecular marker linked to male sterile gene ...

Phenotypic and molecular characterization of diversified cytoplasmic male sterile lines of rice (Oryza sativa L.) [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2013
Genetic diversity in cytoplasmic male sterile (CMS) lines of rice incorporating attributes of locally preferred varieties is essential to help reduce genetic vulnerability and produce desirable heterotic combinations. Seventeen diverse CMS lines were

Genetic Analysis and Preliminary Mapping of a Highly Male-Sterile Gene in Foxtail Millet (Setaria italica L. Beauv.) Using SSR Markers

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture, 2013
Breeding of male-sterile lines has become the mainstream for the heterosis utilization in foxtail millet, but the genetic basis of most male-sterile lines used for the hybrid is still an area to be elucidated.
