Popis: In hybrid plants, heterosis often produces large, vigorous plants with high yields; however, hybrid seeds are generated by costly and laborious crosses of inbred parents. Apomixis, in which a plant produces a clone of itself via asexual reproduction through seeds, may produce another revolution in plant biology. Recently, synthetic apomixis enabled clonal reproduction of F
