Maternal haploids are preferentially induced by CENH3-tailswap transgenic complementation in maize

Maternal haploids are preferentially induced by CENH3-tailswap transgenic complementation in maize

Doubled haploid plants are invaluable breeding tools but many crop species are recalcitrant to available haploid induction techniques. To test if haploid inducer lines can be engineered into crops, CENH3 -/- and CENH3:RNAi lines were complemented by AcGREEN-tailswap-CENH3 or AcGREEN-CENH3 transgenes...
