Several forms of pollination controlSeveral forms of pollination control
1. Manual emasculation
2. Use of male sterility
3. Use of self-incompatibility
4. Use of male gametocides
5. Use of genetically engineered “pollen killer” genetic system
Male-sterilityMale-sterility
Plant that do not produce viable, functional pollen Plant that do not produce viable, functional pollen grainsgrains
An inability to produce or to release functional An inability to produce or to release functional pollen as a result of failure of formation or pollen as a result of failure of formation or development of functional stamens, microspores or development of functional stamens, microspores or gametesgametes
Phenotypic classes of sterilityPhenotypic classes of sterility
• ““Pollen sterility” in which male sterile individuals Pollen sterility” in which male sterile individuals differ from normal only in the absence or extreme differ from normal only in the absence or extreme scarcity of functional pollen grains (scarcity of functional pollen grains (the most common the most common and the only one that has played a major role in plant and the only one that has played a major role in plant breedingbreeding))
• ““Structural or staminal male sterility” in which male Structural or staminal male sterility” in which male flowers or stamen are malformed and non functional flowers or stamen are malformed and non functional or completely absentor completely absent
• ““Functional male sterility” in which perfectly good Functional male sterility” in which perfectly good and viable pollen is trapped in indehiscent anther and viable pollen is trapped in indehiscent anther and thus prevented from functioningand thus prevented from functioning
Types of Male-sterility
Genetic male sterility
Cytoplasmic male sterility
Environment sensitive genetic male sterility
Chemical induced male sterility

CMS is the result of mutation in the mitochondrial CMS is the result of mutation in the mitochondrial genome (mtDNA), which leads to mitochondrial genome (mtDNA), which leads to mitochondrial dysfunction.dysfunction.
Stamen (anther and filament) and pollen grains Stamen (anther and filament) and pollen grains are affectedare affected
Cytoplasmic male-sterilityCytoplasmic male-sterility
The nuclear genetic control of CMS is predominantly governed by one or more recessive genes, but can be also dominant genes as well as polygenes
The different mtDNA restriction endonuclease digestion patterns are reflections of aberrant intra- or inter molecular DNA recombination events in the mitochondrial genome which have either modified existing genes or related new genes some of which are more or less related to the male sterile phenotypes

CMS CharacterizationCMS Characterization
It has been traditionally characterized by the It has been traditionally characterized by the restore genes required to overcome the CMS and to restore genes required to overcome the CMS and to provide male sterile progeny in the male sterile provide male sterile progeny in the male sterile systemsystem
CMS restoration is by nuclear genes, frequently CMS restoration is by nuclear genes, frequently dominant in action, in many cases, few in numberdominant in action, in many cases, few in number
The CMS restore genes temporarily suppress the The CMS restore genes temporarily suppress the expression of the CMS permitting normal or near-expression of the CMS permitting normal or near-normal pollen productionnormal pollen production
TypesTypes
a. Autoplasmica. Autoplasmic CMS has arisen within a species as a result of spontaneous CMS has arisen within a species as a result of spontaneous
mutational changes in the cytoplasm, most likely in the mutational changes in the cytoplasm, most likely in the
mitochondrial genomemitochondrial genome

CMS UtilizationCMS Utilization
It provides a possible mechanism of pollination It provides a possible mechanism of pollination control in plants to permit the easy production of control in plants to permit the easy production of commercial quantities of hybrid seedscommercial quantities of hybrid seeds
It consists of a male sterile line (the A-line), an It consists of a male sterile line (the A-line), an isogenic maintainer line (The B line), and if isogenic maintainer line (The B line), and if necessary also restore line (the R-line)necessary also restore line (the R-line)
A lines are developed by back-crossing selected A lines are developed by back-crossing selected B-lines to a CMS A-line for 4 – 6 times to generate B-lines to a CMS A-line for 4 – 6 times to generate a new A-line, B and R-lines are developed by a new A-line, B and R-lines are developed by similar back cross procedures using a CMS R-line similar back cross procedures using a CMS R-line as female in the original cross and a new line as as female in the original cross and a new line as the recurrent parent in 4 – 6 backcrossesthe recurrent parent in 4 – 6 backcrosses
CMS UtilizationCMS Utilization
