Mapping and Analysis of a Novel Genic Male Sterility Gene in Watermelon (Citrullus lanatus)

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
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.

Stability of Cytoplasmic Genetic Male Sterility and Fertility Restoration in Pigeonpea [PDF]

, 2015
In cytoplasmic genetic male sterility-based (CGMS) hybrid seed production, instability of expression of male-sterility and fertility restoration across a wide range of environments are two of the major difficulties.

Some cytological and ultrastructural aspects of male sterility in Impatiens [PDF]

, 2014
Some cytological and ultrastructural aspects of tapetum and sporogenic cells, in both male-fertile and male-sterile Impatiens, were investigated and compared in order to find the cause of cytoplasmic male ...

Mitochondrially-targeted expression of a cytoplasmic male sterility-associated orf220 gene causes male sterility in Brassica juncea [PDF]

, 2010
Background The novel chimeric open reading frame (orf) resulting from the rearrangement of a mitochondrial genome is generally thought to be a causal factor in the occurrence of cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS).

Advances in plant male sterility for hybrid seed production: an overview of conditional nuclear male sterile lines and biotechnology-based male sterile systems

Frontiers in Plant Science
Male sterility forms the foundation of hybrid seed production technology in field crops. A variety of genetically controlled male sterility/fertility systems starting with cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS), genic male sterility (GMS) including conditional

Preliminary investigation of the effect of ethyl 4'fluorooxanilate as a male gametocide of sweet stem sorghum

Acta Agriculturae Scandinavica. Section B, Soil and Plant Science, 2019
An effective male sterility system enables targeted crosses between parent plants with desired and complementary characteristics. The use of chemical hybridising agents (CHAs) to induce male sterility is quicker and more efficient than manual ...

Gene, protein and network of male sterility in rice

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2013
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
