Maternal gametophytic baseless1 is required for development of the central cell and early endosperm patterning in maize (Zea mays).

Genetics - 1 Sept 2006

Gutiérrez-Marcos José F, Costa Liliana M, Evans Matthew M S

Abstract excerpt

In angiosperms, double fertilization of an egg cell and a central cell with two sperm cells results in the formation of a seed containing a diploid embryo and a triploid endosperm. The extent to which the embryo sac controls postfertilization events in the seed is unknown. The novel gametophytic maternal-effect maize mutation, baseless1 (bsl1) affects central cell development within the embryo sac, frequently by...
