Known in over 150 species, cytoplasmic male sterility is encoded by aberrant mitochondrial
genes that prevent pollen development. The RNA-or protein-level expression of most of the …

Restriction fragment analysis of chloroplast (cp) DNAs from 35 wheat (Triticum) and
Aegilops species, including their 42 accessions, was carried out with the use of 13 restriction …

In the majority of higher plants there is maternal inheritance of cytoplasmic organelles and,
as a consequence, there are few opportunities for the study of the effects on plant phenotype …

Tomato is a crop plant with a relatively small DNA content per haploid genome and a well
developed genetics. Plant regeneration from explants and protoplasts is feasable which led …

Somatic hybrid cell lines with embryogenic capacity were obtained by fusion of protoplasts
isolated from an embryogenic cell line of sugarcane with inactivated protoplasts of an S-(2 …

A single somatic hybrid callus clone was identified following the fusion of Lycopersicon
esculentum protoplasts and Solanum rickii suspension culture protoplasts. The hybrid …

Fertile somatic hybrid plants between tomato and one of its wild relatives (L. peruvianum)
have been produced and were characterised by comparative morphology and fraction 1 …

Protoplasts from Pennisetum americanum resistant to S-2-amino-ethyl-l-cysteine (AEC)
were fused with protoplasts of Panicum maximum utilizing polyethylene glycol …

While it is apparent that the heat shock response is ubiquitous, variabilities in the nature of
the heat shock response between closely related species have not been well characterized …

Protoplast fusion can be used to produce somatic hybrids of species that cannot be obtained
by sexual hybridization. The possibility to introgress genes from Solanum species into the …
