Germplasm
Description Pollen mother cells degenerate. Homozygous ms8 plants exhibit pollen mother cell
(PMC) abnormalities as early as leptotene of meiosis. A few PMC's complete
meiosis but the resulting microspores degenerate very soon thereafter. Some of
the PMC's that complete meiosis I and II exhibit failure of cytokinesis and
coenocytic quartets are formed. In all cases, degeneration occurs rapidly. (M.
Albertsen). Genetic 2005 8 coordinates determined from these recombination and
map data: v16 -14- ms8 -10- j1; fl3 -39- ms8 -8- j1; ms8 -13- j1 -9- emp3; phi121-27-(ms8-2-bnlg1065~npi268a)-23-bnlg1056-
gst1; see MaizeGDB ID:60239; 106337; 66241; 935635. This gene was originally
curated in MaizeGDB Database and the map position was displayed on the maize
bins map if feasible.
