Allelism and allele sequence divergence of LOP, the locus of parthenogenesis in the model apomict Hieracium praealtum (Asteraceae)
Apomixis, or asexual seed development, if introduced into crop species, has the potential to greatly improve global food production. Towards this goal, this study focused on uncovering the genetic mechanisms that control the parthenogenesis step within apomixis whereby fertilisation is avoided. In t...
