Genetic Mapping of the Gamete Eliminator Locus, S2, Causing Hybrid Sterility and Transmission Ratio Distortion Found between Oryza sativa and Oryza glaberrima Cross Combination

open access: yesAgriculture, 2021
Hybrid sterility is a reproductive barrier that prevents gene flow between species. In Oryza species, some hybrid sterility loci, which are classified as gamete eliminators, cause pollen and seed sterility and sex-independent transmission ratio ...

New Hybrid Spikelet Sterility Gene Found in Interspecific Cross between Oryza sativa and O. meridionalis

open access: yesPlants, 2022
Various kinds of reproductive barriers have been reported in intraspecific and interspecific crosses between the AA genome Oryza species, to which Asian rice (O. sativa) and African rice (O. glaberrima) belong.

Reticulate Evolution in AA-Genome Wild Rice in Australia

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
The wild rice gene pool, i.e., AA-genome, in Australia is geographically and genetically distinct from that in Asia. Two distinct taxa are found growing together in northern Australia, Oryza meridionalis (including annual and perennial forms) and an ...

The impacts of flowering phenology on the reproductive success of the narrow endemic Nouelia insignis Franch. (Asteraceae)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
Nouelia insignis Franch. (Asteraceae) is a short, narrow endemic and endangered tree, growing with a natural population in the dry and hot valley of the Jinsha River in the southwest area of China.

How Hybrid Breakdown Can Be Handled in Rice Crossbreeding?

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
In crosses between genetically divergent parents, traits such as weakness and sterility often segregate in later generations. This hybrid breakdown functions as a reproductive barrier and reduces selection efficiency in crossbreeding.

Elaeagnus umbellata thunb. as the potential invasive species in Belgrade region [PDF]

open access: yesGlasnik Šumarskog Fakulteta: Univerzitet u Beogradu, 2008
It is known that invasive plant species, as the species which most often spread and suppress the native species, form stable populations and become dominant firstly by occupying the sites of urban areas, and later on by continuing their invasion to the ...

Morning glory species co‐occurrence is associated with asymmetrically decreased and cascading reproductive isolation

open access: yesEvolution Letters, 2021
Hybridization between species can affect the strength of the reproductive barriers that separate those species. Two extensions of this effect are (1) the expectation that asymmetric hybridization or gene flow will have asymmetric effects on reproductive ...

Multiple maternal risk-management adaptations in the loggerhead sea turtle (Caretta caretta) mitigate clutch failure caused by catastrophic storms and predators

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Maternal risk-management, an extension of r/K selection, is an indispensable tool for understanding the natural selection pressures that shape the evolution of reproduction.

Embryonic 6:2 FTOH exposure causes reproductive toxicity by disrupting the formation of the blood-testis barrier in offspring mice

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2023
Previous studies have revealed nephrotoxicity, hepatotoxicity, subchronic developmental and reproductive toxicity in rats exposed to fluorotelomer alcohol (FTOH). However, the effects of embryonic 6:2 FTOH exposure on the reproductive system of offspring

Segregation Distortion Observed in the Progeny of Crosses Between Oryza sativa and O. meridionalis Caused by Abortion During Seed Development

open access: yesPlants, 2019
Wild rice relatives having the same AA genome as domesticated rice (Oryza sativa) comprise the primary gene pool for rice genetic improvement. Among them, O. meridionalis and O. rufipogon are found in the northern part of Australia. Three Australian wild
