摘      要：Apomixis,or asexual seed formation,is prevalent in Citrinae via a mechanism termed nucellar or adventitious ***,multiple embryos of a maternal genotype form directly from nucellar cells in the ovule and can outcompete the developing zygotic embryo as they utilize the sexually derived endosperm for *** nucellar embryony enables the propagation of clonal plants of maternal genetic constitution,it is also a barrier to effective breeding through *** address the genetics and evolution of apomixis in Citrinae,a chromosome-level genome of the Hongkong kumquat(Fortunella hindsii) was assembled following a genome-wide variation map including structural variants(SVs) based on234 Citrinae *** map revealed that hybrid citrus cultivars shelter genome-wide deleterious mutations and SVs into heterozygous states free from recessive selection,which may explain the capability of nucellar embryony in most cultivars during Citrinae *** reve aled that parallel evolution may explain the repeated origin of apomixis in different genera of *** Fortu nella,we found that apomixis of some varieties originated via *** apomictic Fortunella,the locus associated with apomixis contains the FhRWP gene,encoding an RWP-RK domain-containing protein previously shown to be required for nucellar embryogenesis in *** found the heterozygous SV in the FhRWP and CitRWP promoters from apomictic Citrus and Fortunella,due to either two or three miniature inverted transposon element(MITE) insertions.A transcription factor,FhARID,encoding an AT-rich interaction domain-containing protein binds to the MITEs in the promoter of apomictic varieties,which facilitates induction of nucellar *** study provides evolutionary genomic and molecular insights into apomixis in Citrinae and has potential ramifications for citrus breeding.
