A review of rice male sterility types and their sterility mechanisms

Heliyon, 2023
Male sterility plays an important role in the utilization of heterosis in rice. The establishment of male sterile lines in rice is one of the key technologies in hybrid rice production systems. The currently widely used male sterile line breeding systems

Plant non-coding RNAs function in pollen development and male sterility

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
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.

Molecular regulation of ZmMs7 required for maize male fertility and development of a dominant male-sterility system in multiple species

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2020
Significance Developing a male-sterility system that is effective in multiple species is essential for hybrid seed production in different plants, especially for plants without cloned male-sterility genes.

Activation of Mitochondrial orf355 Gene Expression by a Nuclear-Encoded DREB Transcription Factor Causes Cytoplasmic Male Sterility in Maize

Molecular Plant, 2020
Coordination between mitochondria and nucleus is crucial for fertility determination in cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) plant. Using yeast one-hybrid screening, we identified a transcription factor ZmDREB1.7 that is highly expressed in sterile ...

Identification of S23 causing both interspecific hybrid male sterility and environment-conditioned male sterility in rice

Rice, 2019
Background Oryza glumaepatula represents an important resource of genetic diversity that can be used to improve rice production. However, hybrid sterility severely restricts gene flow between Oryza species, and hinders the utilization of distant ...
