apomixis

This makes it easy to carry out checks for apomixis.

Because fertilization is involved, this process does not fit the definition of apomixis.

Indeed, he and others said, apomixis could help seed companies by speeding up plant breeding.

Seeds may also develop without fertilization, which is referred to as apomixis.

These are the first characterised genes involved in apomixis, a method of making seed without the father.

It is a type of sexual breeding, in contrast to asexual systems such as apomixis.

Apomixis in plants is the formation of a new sporophyte without fertilization.

Plants in most other areas are mostly gynoecious, reproducing via apomixis.

Both are tetraploid species which breed true without pollination by apomixis.

It reproduces by apomixis, in which embryos develop without fertilization.

For apomixis and similar processes in non-plant organisms, see parthenogenesis.

Compounding the problem is the fact that apomixis is common in several genera.

The genetic composition of the offspring depends on what type of apomixis takes place.

Gametophytic apomixis in flowering plants develops in several different ways.

But apomixis could also represent a threat to the seed companies, changing the balance of power between the companies and farmers.

The fruits are mostly produced by apomixis.

This grass also sometimes undergoes apomixis, reproduction without fertilization.

Raunkiær also was an early student of apomixis in flowering plants and hybrid swarms.

The ochlospecies is not readily explained, however, while apomixis is another phenomenon to be taken into account.

Diploid parthenogenesis is a component process of gametophytic apomixis (see above).

There are different forms of apomixis and the same plant can exhibit both sexual and asexual reproduction.

Formae apomicticae are sometimes named among plants that reproduce asexually, by apomixis.

The plant equivalent of parthenogenesis is apomixis.

Vegetative reproduction may be by bulbils or by seeds through apomixis.

These plants tend towards self pollination, apomixis, and vivipary.
