Apomixis is a form of reproduction without fertilization in plants. It has been observed in more than 400 plant species, although it is absent in major crop plants. Apomixis is considered to be a powerful biotechnology tool for maintaining hybrid vigor across generations by producing seeds that are genetically identical to maternal plant. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying apomixis remain poorly understood. Numerous studies have been conducted with the aim of introducing apomict phenotypes into crop species. This review provides a brief overview of apomixis, its mechanisms and current applications.

Apomiksi, bitkilerde döllenme olmadan gerçekleşen bir üreme biçimidir. 400'den fazla bitki türünde gözlemlenmiştir, ancak önemli mahsul bitkilerinde yoktur. Apomiksi, genetik olarak ana bitkiyle aynı olan tohumlar üreterek nesiller boyunca melez canlılığı sürdürmek için güçlü bir biyoteknoloji aracı olarak kabul edilir. Ancak, apomiksinin altında yatan moleküler mekanizmalar yeterince anlaşılmamıştır. Mahsul türlerine apomiktik fenotipleri tanıtmak amacıyla çok sayıda çalışma yürütülmüştür. Bu inceleme, apomiksi, mekanizmaları ve güncel uygulamaları hakkında kısa bir genel bakış sunmaktadır.

Anahtar Kelimeler

bitki üremesi , bitki biyoteknolojisi. , apomiksi
