Analysis of pollen fertility in interspecific aneuploid F1 hybrids with substitutions of specific chromosomes (2, 4, 6, 7, 18) and chromosome arms (telo 6, telo11) of the cotton genome G. hirsutum L. revealed a decrease in fertility in all hybrid plants. It was shown that hybrid monosomics for chromosome 2 were characterized by a slight decrease in pollen fertility; hybrid monosomics of different families with substitution on chromosome 4 and on chromosome 6 - a significant decrease; hybrid monosomics with substitution on chromosome 7 and 18, as well as monotelodisome hybrid plants with substitution of an individual arm of chromosome 6 or 11 - a strong decrease, which indicated the existence of specific differences in pollen fertility in hybrid monosomic plants with substitution of specific chromosomes of the cotton genome due to the formation of partially unbalanced haplo-deficient gametes.
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.
