Genomic imprinting in endosperm: its effect on seed development in crosses between species, and its implications for the evolution of apomixis

1991-07-29

Abstract excerpt

Abstract If a mother sometimes has offspring by more than one father and if genes in the offspring are active in acquiring resources from maternal tissues, theory predicts that alleles at some loci in the offspring will evolve different patterns of gene expression depending on the gene’s parent of origin (genomic imprinting). The criteria for the evolution of imprinting are satisfied in many seed plants, and impri...
