Abstract excerpt
Oryza sativa BABY BOOM 1 (OsBBM1), a member of the AP2/ERF family of transcription factors, is expressed from paternal allele in rice zygote and plays a crucial role in initiating zygotic development. However, the mechanism how the paternal OsBBM1 drives this development remains unclear. Rice zygotes with four different gamete combinations with or without functional paternal OsBBMs were produced by electrofusion,...
