Deficiency of a triterpene pathway results in humidity-sensitive genic male sterility in rice
Nature Communications, 2018 In flowering plants, the pollen coat protects the released male germ cells from desiccation and damage during pollination. However, we know little about the mechanism by which the chemical composition of the pollen coat prevents dehydration of pollen ...

Genomic structural variation-mediated allelic suppression causes hybrid male sterility in rice
Nature Communications, 2017 Hybrids between divergent populations commonly show hybrid sterility; this reproductive barrier hinders hybrid breeding of the japonica and indica rice (Oryza sativa L.) subspecies. Here we show that structural changes and copy number variation at the Sc

Wheat Ms2 encodes for an orphan protein that confers male sterility in grass species
Nature Communications, 2017 Male sterility is a valuable trait for plant breeding and hybrid seed production. The dominant male-sterile gene Ms2 in common wheat has facilitated the release of hundreds of breeding lines and cultivars in China. Here, we describe the map-based cloning
