“…Sequences with similar annotations have been reported to be associated with apomixis and/or polyploidy for various other species, including Poa pratensis [53], Paspalum notatum [44,45], potato [54], Pennisetum squamulatum and Cenchrus ciliare [25], Panicum maximum [55], and Paspalum simplex [24,56]. Taking into account our previous results in E. curvula [32,33,35], the results of the present study, and those reported for other species by other authors, there are many commonalities among the different species with respect to apomixis.…”
