Abstract excerpt
The Brassica-specific gene MS5 mediates early meiotic progression, and its allelic variants contribute to a valuable genic male sterility three-line hybrid production system in rapeseed (Brassica napus L.). However, the underlying mechanisms of its triallelic inheritance are poorly understood. Herein, we show that the restorer allele MS5a and the maintainer allele MS5c are both necessary for male fertility in...
