Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation ui10.1 is the pollen-expressed FPS2 gene.
- Observation The S. lycopersicum allele pollen was eliminated on F1 hybrid pistils, distorting F2 transmission.
- Intervention effect S. pennellii fps2 knockouts were self-sterile from pollen rejection.
- Observation S. pennellii fps2 mutant pollen functioned on S. lycopersicum pistils.
- Observation F2 progeny from the fps2 cross showed reversed transmission distortion.
- Intervention effect FPS2 overexpression in S. lycopersicum pollen rescued elimination.
- Mechanism FPS2 pollen selectivity is independent of S-RNase.
