摘要

Apomixis, a genetic method for clonal propagation through seeds, offers tremendous advantages for agriculture, especially in developing countries. Despite the promises that apomixis technology holds, research efforts in India have been limited. Our strengths combining wide biodiversity especially in the grass family, coupled with latest technological developments in the field shall redefine efforts on apomixis research. Past efforts and future directions including novel model systems and approaches to take up apomixis research in India are presented.
