Maternal and paternal genomes contribute equally to the transcriptome of early plant embryos

In animals, maternal gene products deposited into eggs regulate embryonic development before activation of the zygotic genome1. In plants, an analogous period of prolonged maternal control over embryogenesis is thought to occur based on some gene-expression studies2, 3, 4, 5, 6. However, other gene-...
