Defective callose walls and cell plates during abnormal meiosis cause male-sterility in the oat mutant zbs1

Abstract: During meiosis in flowering plants, degradation of the callose wall in tetrads releases newly produced microspores, which develop into mature pollen grains. In this study, we identified zbs1, a male-sterile mutant of naked oat (Avena nuda L.) that displayed complete spikelet sterility due...
