Diploid aposporous sunflower forms triploid BIII progeny displaying increased apospory levels and non-random genetic mutations

Abstract Apomixis (asexual reproduction via seeds) has the potential to revolutionize sunflower breeding. In previous studies, we identified a diploid sunflower line (Rf975) that naturally exhibits extra gametophytes resembling aposporous apomictic embryo sacs (AES). Here, we investigated the nature...
