How did a duplicated gene copy evolve into a restorer-of-fertility gene in a plant? The case of Oma1 [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2019 Restorer-of-fertility (Rf) is a suppressor of cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS), a mitochondrion-encoded trait that has been reported in many plant species.

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Arabinogalactan proteins (AGPs) are hydroxyproline-rich glycoproteins containing a high proportion of carbohydrates, widely distributed in the plant kingdom and ubiquitously present in land plants. AGPs have long been suggested to play important roles in

BMC Genomics, 2018 Background Silene vulgaris (bladder campion) is a gynodioecious species existing as two genders – male-sterile females and hermaphrodites. Cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) is generally encoded by mitochondrial genes, which interact with nuclear fertility

Possible molecular mechanisms of persistent pollen tube growth without de novo transcription
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 The vegetative cell nucleus proceeds ahead of a pair of sperm cells located beneath the pollen tube tip during germination. The tip-localized vegetative nucleus had been considered to play a pivotal role in the control of directional pollen tube growth ...
