  • Previously, a proof-of-concept for low frequency synthetic apomixis was established in a laboratory strain of rice by combining MiMe mutations with the egg cell expression of the embryogenic trigger - BBM1. Here, the authors achieve clonal seed formation in hybrid rice with almost full penetrance and higher fertility.

  • The genes FANCM, RECQ4 and FIGL1 affect meiotic recombination in Arabidopsis. By examining the effects of their orthologues on recombination in three crop species, the authors find that mutating RECQ4 could be a universal tool for increasing recombination.
