A target region amplified polymorphism marker for fertility restorer gene rf1 and chromosomal localization of rf1 and rf2 in cotton
Cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS), a maternally inherited trait characterized as an inability to produce functional pollen, is an important biological system for economically producing hybrid seed to enhance crop yield and studying cytoplasmic and nuclear gene interactions. In cultivated tetraploid cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.), male fertility in two systems CMS-D2 and CMS-D8 is restored by two ...
