Two F2 populations with different kinds of spike derived from maize male sterility materials RP(3)195 (A) x S37 (inbred line) ,which had been sib-bred for many generations,were used for sterility analysis and gene location. There were 138 and 247 plants in the two F2 populations respectively. Among the 326 pairs of microsatellite primers selected,56 were found polymorphic. Linkage analysis of F2 populations with the 56 pairs of primers showed that microsatellite markers bnlg197 and umc1012 were linked with the male sterility gene. The genetic distance between marker bnlgl97 and the male sterility gene in the two different F2 populations were 7 cM and 14.5 cM respectively. The genetic distance between marker umc1012 and the male sterility gene in the 138 plants was 28.5 cM. Thus the male sterility gene was located on chromosome 3L.

Objectives: Acetylated tubulin is a hallmark of flagellar stability in spermatozoa, and studies have demonstrated the ability of CDYL to function as a tubulin acetyltransferase in spermatozoa. Of note, germline conditional knockout of Cdyl can lead to asthenoteratozoospermia and infertility in male mice. However, the role of CDYL gene in human fertility remains uncharacterized.

Heat stress (HS) at the reproductive stage detrimentally affects crop yields and seed quality. However, the molecular mechanisms that protect reproductive processes in plants under HS remain largely unknown. Here, we report that Acetylation Lowers Binding Affinity 3 (ALBA3) is crucial for safeguarding male fertility against HS in Arabidopsis.

High temperature (HT) stress causes male sterility, leading to reduced upland cotton yield. Previously, we identified a key gene, Casein Kinase I (GhCKI), that negatively regulates male fertility in upland cotton under HT. However, conventional genetic manipulations of GhCKI would result in male sterility, hindering its utilization in breeding programs.

The accurate callose deposition plays important roles in pollen wall formation and pollen fertility. As a direct target of miRNA160, ARF17 participate in the formation of the callose wall. However, the impact of ARF17 misexpression in microsporocytes on callose wall formation and pollen fertility remains unknown.

We are witnessing an ongoing global biodiversity crisis, and an increasing number of mammalian populations are at risk of decline. Species that have survived severe historic bottlenecks, such as the cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus) exhibit symptoms of inbreeding depression including reproductive and developmental defects. Although it has long been suggested that such defects stem from an accumulation of weakly deleterious mutations, the implications of such mutations leading to pseudogenization has not been assessed.
