Abstract excerpt
FERTILIZATION INDEPENDENT ENDOSPERM (FIE) is a core component of PcG complexes and functions in plant phase transition and seed generation. However, understanding in its function of apomictic monocot plants remains blank. Here an FIE homology EbFIE, has been isolated from apomictic Graminae species Eulaliopsis binata. EbFIE shares higher homology to OsFIE2 than OsFIE1, and has been classified into the monocot...
