UNIFORM PROGENY. “Apomixis leads to the formation of genetically uniform populations and these can persist over many seedling generations. This makes it a potentially attractive trait for agriculture as its introduction into crops would significantly increase the rate of breeding gain for seed-propagated crops and it would simplify the production of hybrid populations for commercial use.”
