A Pollen Selection System for Alcohol-Dehydrogenase-Negative Mutants in Plants
AUTOR(ES)
Schwartz, Drew
RESUMO
Exposure of freshly shed maize pollen to allyl alcohol vapors allows selective fertilization by mutant alcohol-dehydrogenase-negative grains. Wild-type pollen grains are killed by the enzymatic conversion of allyl alcohol to the highly toxic acrylaldehyde.
