Generating clonal seeds using non-reduction in female4 (nrf4), a novel meiotic mutant of maize

This paper describes a novel meiotic mutant in maize that produces unreduced female gametes, enabling clonal seed production when combined with another mutant, advancing synthetic apomixis research.

Transcriptomic analyses in the gametophyte ofDryopteris affinis: apomixis and more

The paper identifies and analyzes proteins involved in apomixis and stress responses in the gametophyte of Dryopteris affinis using transcriptomic data.

The Polycomb group protein MEDEA controls cell proliferation and embryonic patterning in Arabidopsis

This study shows that MEA, a Polycomb group protein in Arabidopsis, is essential for embryonic patterning and cell lineage determination, independent of endosperm function.
