A CENH3 mutation promotes meiotic exit and restores fertility in SMG7-deficient Arabidopsis.

A CENH3 mutation promotes meiotic exit and restores fertility in SMG7-deficient Arabidopsis.

Meiosis in angiosperm plants is followed by mitotic divisions to form multicellular haploid gametophytes. Termination of meiosis and transition to gametophytic development is, in Arabidopsis, governed by a dedicated mechanism that involves SMG7 and TDM1 proteins. Mutants carrying the smg7-6 allele a...
