The occurrence of trace-pollen plants In sterilematerials was caused by nuclear polygenes of the maintainers; 2. Progenies of partial sterility typeshowed segregation of sterile, partially sterile (with trace pollen )and fertile plants; 3. High andlow temperature CMS lines were crossed and its progenies manifested complex segregation; 4.There was a tendency to increase the fertility with successive selfing of the high temperatureCMS line.展开更多
Cytoplasmic male sterility(CMS) is a maternally inherited trait that results in the failure to produce functional pollen.It was identified in many plants,and it is widely used to exploit heterosis.
