“…We raise the question as to whether each of these Rf s is an idiosyncratic example that episodically emerged during plant-species diversification or is there a tendency or trend underlying Rf evolution. To approach this question, we will briefly review plant Rf s. Recent reviews on CMS, Rf and other types of male sterility will help to understand the progress of this research area [19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32]. This question has also been addressed from the viewpoint of evolutionary genetics (reviewed ib [33]).…”

Cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) is a widely used trait for hybrid seed production. Although male sterility is caused by S cytoplasm (male-sterility inducing mitochondria), the action of S cytoplasm is suppressed by restorer-of-fertility (Rf), a nuclear gene. Hence, the genetics of Rf has attained particular interest among plant breeders. The genetic model posits Rf diversity in which an Rf specifically suppresses the cognate S cytoplasm. Molecular analysis of Rf loci in plants has identified various genes; however, pentatricopeptide repeat (PPR) protein (a specific type of RNA-binding protein) is so prominent as the Rf-gene product that Rfs have been categorized into two classes, PPR and non-PPR. In contrast, several shared features between PPR- and some non-PPR Rfs are apparent, suggesting the possibility of another grouping. Our present focus is to group Rfs by molecular genetic classes other than the presence of PPRs. We propose three categories that define partially overlapping groups of Rfs: association with post-transcriptional regulation of mitochondrial gene expression, resistance gene-like copy number variation at the locus, and lack of a direct link to S-orf (a mitochondrial ORF associated with CMS). These groups appear to reflect their own evolutionary background and their mechanism of conferring S cytoplasm specificity.

“…It is widely accepted that CMS in the plant is closely related to mitochondrial genome rearrangement, and many trait‐determining mitochondrial genes could be suppressed or activated by Rf‐ genes (Bentolila & Stefanov, ; Chen et al, ; Zheng et al, ). In fact, some specific CMS‐related genes have been identified as direct or indirect MS due to damage or abnormalities in the mitochondrial genome (Kazama et al, ).…”

“…Besides this, circular RNAs (circRNAs) are crucial non-coding RNAs, which play imperative roles in miRNAs function and post-transcription control. Chen et al (2018) found that 83 miR-NAs were predicted from the differentially expressed circRNAs, some of which were strongly related to pollen development and It is widely accepted that CMS in the plant is closely related to mitochondrial genome rearrangement, and many trait-determining mitochondrial genes could be suppressed or activated by Rf-genes (Bentolila & Stefanov, 2012;Chen et al, 2017;Zheng et al, 2012).

In plants, male sterility (MS) is a specific breeding target trait. With the advancements in agriculture, utilization of heterosis breeding in hybrid production through MS lines has become the main breeding tool of various cross‐pollinated and even self‐pollinated crops. Soybean is an essential source of oil and protein; however, the low yield is a major factor limiting its development. Soybean MS mainly comprises cytoplasmic‐nuclear MS and nuclear/genic MS (NMS/GMS), which can effectively utilize heterosis to improve soybean yield. This review outlines the recent research progress on the development of new genetically MS lines, exploring the underlying molecular mechanism of MS, identification and cloning of MS and fertility restoration genes, and the application of MS lines. We further discussed and prospected the future developmental scenario direction of the soybean MS, based on the previous studies of other crops sterility system. Moreover, this review also provides comprehensive information for better application of MS to soybean breeding programme.

“…So far, the traits with major impact in plant breeding showing cytoplasmic effects have been cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS), caused by mitochondrial genes (Bohra et al, 2016;Chen et al, 2017) and herbicide resistance, codified by mutations in the chloroplast gene psbA (Greiner, 2012). However, many other characters like yield and quality parameters, disease resistance, chilling tolerance, tissue culture response and regeneration, combining ability and plant adaptation have been found to be associated with the effect of cytoplasmic genes and cytonuclear interactions (Chandra-Shekara et al, 2007;Gordon and Staub, 2011;Reddy et al, 2011;Bock et al, 2014;Shen et al, 2015;Roux et al, 2016;Satyavathi et al, 2016;Dey et al, 2017b;Boussardon et al, 2019).…”

CIMMYT maize inbred lines (CMLs) are freely distributed to breeding programs around the world. Better information on phenotypic and genotypic diversity may provide guidance to breeders on how to use more efficiently the CMLs in their breeding programs. In this study a group of 291 CIMMYT maize inbred lines, was phenotyped by nine agro-morphological traits in south Córdoba, Argentina and genotyped using 18,082 SNPs. Based on the geographic information and the environmental adaptation, 291 CMLs were classified into eight subgroups. Anthesis-silking interval (IAE) was the trait with higher phenotypic diversity. A 40% of maize inbred lines, with IAE less than five days, show a good adaptation to growing conditions in south Córdoba, Argentina. The low phenotypic variation explained by environmental adaptation subgroups indicates that population structure is only a minor factor contributing to phenotypic diversity in this panel. Principal component analysis (ACP) allowed us to obtain phenotypic and genotypic orderings. Generalized procrustes analysis (APG) indicated a 60% consensus between both data type from the total panel of maize lines. In each environmental adaptation subgroup, the APG consensus was higher. This result, which might indicate linkage disequilibrium between SNPs markers and the genes controlling these agro-morphological traits, is promising and could be used as an initial tool in the identification of Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL). Information on genetic diversity, population structure and phenotypic diversity in local environments will help maize breeders to better understand how to use the current CIMMYT maize inbred lines group. Key words: broad-sense heritability, multivariate analysis, SNPs, agro-morphological traits.
