Four near-isonuclear polycytoplasmic versions of 81A and two of Pb 402A male-sterile lines of pearl millet (Pennisetum typhoides) were used in factorial matings with five inbred male testers in different combinations in three sets. The cytoplasmic differences were studied for several agronomic trait
Male sterility genes isolated in four inbred lines of pearl millet were found allelic. The differences between male fertile and male sterile phenotypes is mainly due to a single gene. Presence of a dominant gene (Ms) resulted in male fertility and double recessiveness (ms ms) in male sterility. Howe
Interspecific substitutions of the nucleus of Helianthus annuus (2n = 34) cv. Saturn into the cytoplasm of H. petiolaris (2n = 34) by successive backcrossing, resulted in progenies with indehiscent anthers contaimng white, rather than normal yellow, pollen. Further backcrossing by cv. Saturn failed
