High and low temperatures induce the formation of abnormal embryo sacks (ES). ES with additional cells in the egg cell apparatus and synergids that are similar to an egg sells are capable of producing seeds with additional and haploid embrios.
The literature and experimental analysis of maize embryo and endospermogenesis genes expression before and after pollination will be presented. Data on the CRISPR/Cas9 editing of maize embryo- and endospermogenesis genes are discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
