Global transcriptome analysis of two <it>ameiotic1 </it>alleles in maize anthers: defining steps in meiotic entry and progression through prophase I

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Developmental cues to start meiosis occur late in plants. <it>Ameiotic1 </it>(<it>Am1</it>) encodes a plant-specific nuclear protein (AM1) required for meiotic entry and progression through early prophase I. P...
