Enlarging cells initiating apomixis in Hieracium praealtum transition to an embryo sac program prior to entering mitosis.
Hieracium praealtum forms seeds asexually by apomixis. During ovule development, sexual reproduction initiates with megaspore mother cell entry into meiosis and formation of a tetrad of haploid megaspores. The sexual pathway ceases when a diploid aposporous initial (AI) cell differentiates, enlarges, and undergoes mitosis, forming an aposporous embryo sac that displaces sexual structures. Embry...
متن کاملSexual and apomictic reproduction in Hieracium subgenus pilosella are closely interrelated developmental pathways.
Seed formation in flowering plants requires meiosis of the megaspore mother cell (MMC) inside the ovule, selection of a megaspore that undergoes mitosis to form an embryo sac, and double fertilization to initiate embryo and endosperm formation. During apomixis, or asexual seed formation, in Hieracium ovules, a somatic aposporous initial (AI) cell divides to form a structurally variable aposporo...
متن کاملSporophytic ovule tissues modulate the initiation and progression of apomixis in Hieracium
Apomixis in Hieracium subgenus Pilosella initiates in ovules when sporophytic cells termed aposporous initial (AI) cells enlarge near sexual cells undergoing meiosis. AI cells displace the sexual structures and divide by mitosis to form unreduced embryo sac(s) without meiosis (apomeiosis) that initiate fertilization-independent embryo and endosperm development. In some Hieracium subgenus Pilose...
متن کاملDeletion mapping of genetic regions associated with apomixis in Hieracium.
Although apomixis has been quoted as a technology with the potential to deliver benefits similar in scale to those achieved with the Green Revolution, very little is currently known of the genetic mechanisms that control this trait in plants. To address this issue, we developed Hieracium, a genus of daisies native to Eurasia and North America, as a genetic model to study apomixis. In a molecula...
متن کاملDifferentiation of Mouse Yolk Sac Cells to Erythroid Cells in The Presence of Erythropoietin
Purpose: Yolk sac hematopoietic stem cells (YS-HSC) have two dominant characteristices: a larger reproductive capacity and the absence of the expression of MHC associated antigens. Therefore, these cells are promising candidates for transplantation, cell therapy and gene manipulation. There are controversial reports on the effects of erythropoietin (EPO) on the differentiation of yolk sac cells...
