When genomes collide: aberrant seed development following maize interploidy crosses.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: The results of wide- or interploidy crosses in angiosperms are unpredictable and often lead to seed abortion. The consequences of reciprocal interploidy crosses have been explored in maize in detail, focusing on alterations to tissue domains in the maize endosperm, and changes...
