Evaluation of effective gametocides for selective induction of male sterility in sorghum
Effective gametocides can serve as alternative agents to induce male sterility in sorghum. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effectiveness of selected male gametocides in sorghum, to determine the optimum concentration of the chemicals ...

Advances in Research and Application of Male Sterility in Brassica oleracea
Brassica oleracea is an important vegetable species which belongs to the genus Brassica and the mustard family Brassicaceae Burnett. Strong heterosis in B. oleracea is displayed in yield, quality, disease resistance, and stress tolerance.

Characterisation and utilization of three distinct male sterile systems in marigold (Tagetes erecta)
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.

Segregation and Heritability of Male Sterility in Populations Derived from Progeny of Satsuma Mandarin. [PDF]
Male sterility derived from Satsuma mandarin (Citrus unshiu) has been used in Japanese citrus breeding programs to obtain seedless cultivars, which is a desirable trait for consumers.

Male sterility has been widely used in hybrid seed production in Brassica, but not in B. rapa ssp. chinensis, and genetic models of male sterility for this subspecies are unclear. We discovered a spontaneous mutant in B. rapa ssp. chinensis.

Mapping and Analysis of a Novel Genic Male Sterility Gene in Watermelon (Citrullus lanatus)
Seed production is critical for watermelon production, which mostly involves first-generation hybrid varieties. However, watermelon hybrid seed production currently requires complex procedures, including artificial isolation and pollination.

Nuclear-Cytoplasmic male-sterility in diploid dandelions [PDF]
Male-sterility was found in diploid dandelions from two widely separated populations from France, and its inheritance was analysed by crossing a diploid male-sterile dandelion to diploid sexuals and triploid apomicts.

Male and female sterility in Zambia
Background: Population measures of sterility are traditionally constructed for women, despite fertility and sterility being conditions of the couple. Estimates of male sterility provide insight into population-level sterility, and complement estimates ...

The influence of late-stage pupal irradiation and increased irradiated:un-irradiated male ratio on mating competitiveness of the malaria mosquito Anopheles arabiensis Patton [PDF]
Competitiveness of released males in genetic control programmes is of critical importance. In this paper, we explored two scenarios to compensate for the loss of mating competitiveness after pupal stage irradiation in males of the malaria mosquito ...
