Clonal reproduction by seed of a cultivated hybrid plant: a new perspective for small-scale rice growers by Vernet, Aurore, Meynard, Donaldo, Guiderdoni, Emmanuel

“…Here, we have introduced synthetic apomixis in hybrid rice to produce a high (95–100%) frequency of clonal seeds, via the inactivation of three meiotic genes—resulting in unreduced, non-recombined gametes—and the addition of an egg cell parthenogenesis trigger. The genotype and phenotype, including grain quality, of the F1 hybrid are reproduced identically in the clonal apomictic progenies. …”
