Gametophytic and zygotic selection leads to segregation distortion through in vivo induction of a maternal haploid in maize
Production of maternal haploids via a male inducer can greatly accelerate maize breeding and is an interesting biological phenomenon in double fertilization. However, the mechanism behind haploid induction remains elusive. Segregation distortion, which is increasingly recognized as a potentially pow...
