Asynchronous meiosis in Cucumis hystrix–cucumber synthetic tetraploids resulting in low male fertility

Interspecific hybridization and allopolyploidization contribute to the improvement of many important crops. Recently, we successfully developed an amphidiploid from an interspecific cross between cucumber (Cucumis sativus, 2n = 2x = 14) and its relative C. hystrix (2n = 2x = 24) followed by chemical...
