3. Male Sterility
Male sterility is characterized by nonfunctional pollen grains,
while female gametes function normally.
Inability to produce or to release viable or functional pollen as
a result of failure of formation or development of functional
stamens, microspores or gametes.
Main reason is mutation.
Sterile SterileFertile Fertile
4. Manifestations of Male Sterility
Absence or malformation of male organs.
Failure to develop normal microsporogenous tissue- anther
Abnormal microsporogenesis (deformed or inviable pollen)
Abnormal pollen maturation
Non dehiscent anthers but viable pollen, sporophytic control
Barriers other than incompatibility preventing pollen from
reaching ovule
5. History of Male Sterility
J.K. Koelreuter (1763) observed anther abortion within species
& species hybrids.
Genic male sterility has been reported in cabbage (Rundfeldt
1960), cauliflower (Nieuwhof 1961)
Male sterility systems have been also developed through genetic
engineering (Williams et al. 1997) and protoplast fusion
(Pelletier et al. 1995)
Male sterility were artificially induced through mutagenesis
(Kaul 1988)
6. Manual emasculation
Use of male sterility
Use of self-incompatibility alleles
Use of male gametocides
Use of genetically engineered “pollen killer”
genetic system
Several forms of pollination control
7. Why Male Sterility ???
Reduced the cost of hybrid seed production.
Production of large scale of F1 seeds.
Avoids enormous manual work of emasculation
and pollination.
Speed up the hybridization programme.
Commercial exploitation of hybrid vigour.
8. Creation of Male Sterility
Spontaneous mutations
Interspecific hybridization
Mutation induction (EtBr)
Genetic Engineering
Chemically induced male sterility (CHAs)
9. Detection of Male Sterility system
Whether a particular sterile genotype belongs to which MS
system can be detected by its progeny performance on crossing
with a few normal genotypes.
Trend-I- All progenies in all the rows may be sterile- CMS
Trend-II- Some rows may consist all fertile
Some rows sterile and fertile in 1:1 ratio- GMS
Trend-III- Some rows fertile. Some rows sterile and some
rows sterile and fertile in 1:1 ratio - CGMS
10. Classification of Male Sterility
Kaul (1988) Classified Male Sterility in three major groups
1. Phenotypic Male Sterility (Morphological)
Structural or Staminal Male Sterility
Pollen Male Sterility
Functional Male Sterility
2. Genotypic Male Sterility
Genetic Male Sterility (GMS)
Environmental Sensitive (EGMS)
a) Thermo sensitive genetic male sterility (TGMS)
b) Photoperiod sensitive genetic male sterility (PGMS)
Environmental non-sensitive
Cytoplasmic Male Sterility (CMS)
Cytoplasmic Genetic Male Sterility (CGMS)
Transgenic Male Sterility (TMS)
3. Chemically Induced Male Sterility (CHA)
11. Pollen sterility: in which male sterile individuals differ from
normal only in the absence or extreme scarcity of functional
pollen grains (the most common and the only one that has played
a major role in plant breeding).
Structural or staminal male sterility: in which male flowers or
stamen are malformed and non functional or completely absent.
Functional male sterility: in which perfectly good and viable
pollen is trapped in indehiscent anther and thus prevented from
functioning
Phenotypic Male Sterility
12. Cytoplasmic Male Sterility (CMS)
Determined by the cytoplasm (mitochondrial or chloroplast genes).
Result of mutation in mitochondrial genome (mtDNA)- Mitochondrial
dysfunction.
Progenies would always be male sterile since the cytoplasm comes
primarily from female gamete only.
Nuclear genotype of male sterile line is almost identical to that of the
recurrent pollinator strain.
Male fertile line (maintainer line or B line) is used to maintain the
male sterile line (A line).
CMS is not influenced by environmental factors (temperature) so is
stable.
13. CMS can used in hybrid seed production of certain ornamental
species or in species where a vegetative part is of economic value.
But not for crop plants where seed is the economic part because the
hybrid progeny would be male sterile.
This type of male sterility found in onion, fodder jowar, cabbage etc.
Utilization of CMS in Plant Breeding
16. Genetic Male Sterility (GMS)
Also called as nuclear male sterility.
Mostly governed by single recessive gene (ms) but dominant gene
governing male sterility (safflower).
Origin: Spontaneous mutation or artificial mutations (Gamma rays,
EMS) are common.
‘ms’alleles may affect staminal initiation, stamen or anther sac
development, PMC formation, meiosis, pollen formation, maturation
and dehiscence.
S.No. Mutagens Crops
1 Colchicine Jowar
2 Ethidium Bromide Groundnut, Maize, wheat
3 Acetone Barley
17. Types of GMS
Environment insensitive GMS: ms gene expression is much less affected
by the environment.
Environment sensitive GMS: ms gene expression occurs within a
specified range of temperature and /or photoperiod regimes (Rice, Tomato,
Wheat etc.).
1. TGMS: sterility is at particular temperature e.g. In rice TGMS line
(Pei- Ai645) at 23.30C (China).
TGMS at high temperature is due to failure of pairing of two
chromosomes at metaphase was evident.
This abnormality led to abnormal meiosis, abnormal or sterile pollens.
Anthers were shriveled and non-dehiscence-Male sterile.
However, these lines produced normal fertile pollen at low temp.
Sensitive period : PMC formation to Meiosis
18. 2. PGMS: Governed by 2 recessive genes.
Sterility is obtained in long day conditions while in short days,
normal fertile plant.
Rice:- Sterile under Long day conditions (13 hr. 45 min + Temp. 23-
290 C) but fertile under short day conditions.
Sensitive period: Differentiation of secondary rachis branches to
PMC formation

21. Cytoplasmic Genetic Male Sterility (CGMS)
CGMS is also known as nucleoplasmic male sterility.
Case of CMS, where a nuclear gene (R) for restoring fertility in
male sterile line is known.
R (restorer gene) is generally dominant can be transferred from
related strains or species.
This system is known in cotton, maize, jowar, bajra, sunflower,
cotton, rice and wheat etc.

Male Sterility based Hybrids in Important Crops
28. Recombinant DNA techniques for disturbing any or number of
developmental steps required for the production of functional
pollen within the microspore or for the development of any
somatic tissues supporting the microspores.
Transgenes for male sterility are dominant to fertility.
Also to develop effective fertility restoration system for hybrid
seed production.
Example: Barnase/Barstar system
Transgenic Male Sterility
29. Undesirable effects of the cytoplasm
Unsatisfactory fertility restoration
Unsatisfactory pollination
Spontaneous reversion
Modifying genes
Contribution of cytoplasm by male gamete
Environmental effects
Non availability of a suitable restorer line
Limitations of Cytoplasmic-Genetic Male Sterility
30.
31. Barnase is extracellular RNase; barstar is inhibitor of barnase
(Bacillus amyloliquefaciens)
Plants with TA29 promoter-Barnase construct are male sterile
Those with TA29-Barstar are not affected by the transgene barnase.
Barstar is dominant over the Barnase
Fuse the barnase and barstar genes to TA29 promoter–TA29 is a plant
gene that has tapetum specific expression.
Cross male sterile (barnase) with male fertile (barstar) to get hybrid
seed, which now has both barnase and barstar expressed in tapetum
and, hence, is fully fertile
Barnase/Barstar system
34. CHA is a chemical that induces artificial, non-genetic male
sterility in plants so that they can be effectively used as female
parent in hybrid seed production.
Also called as Male gametocides, male sterilants, selective male
sterilants, pollen suppressants, pollenocide, androcide etc.
The first report was given by Moore and Naylor (1950), they
induced male sterility in Maize using maleic hydrazide (MH).
Chemical Induced Male Sterility
35. Properties of an Ideal CHA
Must be highly male or female selective.
Should be easily applicable and economic in use.
Time of application should be flexible.
Must not be mutagenic.
Must not be carried over in F1 seeds.
Must consistently produce >95% male sterility.
Must cause minimum reduction in seed set.
Should not affect out crossing.
Should not be hazardous to the environment.
36. S.No. CHAs Critical stage Crop species

3. Mendok Depends on crop Cotton, sugarbeet
4. Gibberellic acid 1-3 days before meiosis Maize, Barley,
Wheat, Rice,
Sunflower
5. Maleic Hydrazide Early microsporogenesis Maize, wheat,
cotton, onion
Some important CHAs
37. Hybrid Seed Production based on CHAs
Proper environmental conditions (Rain, Sunshine, temp, RH etc.)
Synchronisation of flowering of Male & Female parents.
Effective chemical emasculation and cross pollination
CHA at precise stage and with recommended dose
GA3 spray to promote stigma exertion.
Supplementary pollination to maximise seed set
Avoid CHA spray on pollinator row.
Conditions required:-
38. Advantages of CHAs
Any line can be used as female parent.
Choice of parents is flexible.
Rapid method of developing male sterile line.
No need of maintaining A,B&R lines.
Hybrid seed production is based on only 2 line system.
Maintenance of parental line is possible by self pollination.
CHA based F2 hybrids are fully fertile as compared to few sterile
hybrids in case of CMS or GMS.
39. Limitations of CHAs
Expression and duration of CHA is stage specific.
Sensitive to environmental conditions.
Incomplete male sterility produce selfed seeds.
Many CHAs are toxic to plants and animals.
Possess carryover residual effects in F1 seeds.
Interfere with cell division.
Affect human health.
Genotype, dose application stage specific.
40. Male sterility a primary tool to avoid emasculation in hybridization.
Hybrid production requires a female plant in which no viable
pollens are borne. Inefficient emasculation may produce some self
fertile progenies.
GMS is being exploited (Eg.USA-Castor, India-Arhar).
CMS/ CGMS are routinely used in Hybrid seed production in corn,
sorghum, sunflower and sugarbeet, ornamental plants.
Saves lot of time, money and labour.
Significance of male Sterility in Plant Breeding
41. Existence and maintenance of A, B & R Lines is laborious and
difficult.
If exotic lines are not suitable to our conditions, the native/adaptive
lines have to be converted into MS lines.
Adequate cross pollination should be there between A and R lines for
good seed set.
Synchronization of flowering should be there between A & R lines.
Fertility restoration should be complete otherwise the F1 seed will be
sterile Isolation is needed for maintenance of parental lines and for
producing hybrid seed.
Limitations in using Male Sterile line
42.
43. Male sterility system in Rice hybrid seed production
Male sterility: a condition in which the pollen grain is unviable or
cannot germinate and fertilize normally to set seeds.
Male Sterility Systems (genetic and non-genetic):
Cytoplasmic genetic male sterility (CMS)
Male sterility is controlled by the interaction of a genetic factor
(S) present in the cytoplasm and nuclear gene (s).
Environment-sensitive genic male sterility (EGMS)
Male sterility system is controlled by nuclear gene expression,
which is influenced by environmental factors such as temperature
(TGMS), daylength (PGMS), or both (TPGMS).
Chemically induced male sterility
Male sterility is induced by some chemicals (gametocides)

52. Male sterility system in Maize hybrid seed production
Different ways of inducing male sterility in maize
I. Manual/mechanical emasculation (detasselling)
II. Genic male sterility
III. Cytoplasmic genetic male sterility
IV. Gametocides
1. Genetic Male sterility
Male sterility determined by single recessive gene
40 loci involved have been identified (ms1 to ms52)
ms5 –cloned
Problem : impossible to maintain male sterile inbred
detasselling required
53. 2. Cytoplasmic Male sterility
1. CMS-T (Texas) (Rogers and Edwardson, 1952)
Highly stable under all environmental conditions
Characterized by failure of anther exertion and pollen abortion
Susceptible to race T of the southern corn leaf blight - (Cochliobolus
heterostrophus = Bipolaris maydis)
Widespread use of T-cytoplasm for hybrid corn production led to
epidemic in 1970 with the widespread rise of Race T.
Toxin produced by C. heterostrophus = T-toxin.
Fertility restoration is sporophytic
Rf1 (chr. 3) & Rf2 (chr.9) are responsible for fertility restoration
54. 2. CMS-C (Charrua) (Beckett, 1971)
Mutations in three genes viz atp6, atp 9 and cosII- confer CMS
phenotype
Fertility restoration is Sporophytic
Rf4, Rf5, Rf6 are responsible for fertility restoration
3. CMS-S (USDA) (Jones,1957)
Sterility associated with orf355-orf77 chimeric mt gene
Fertility restoration is Gametophytic
Rf3 (chr. 2) are responsible for fertility restoration
Plasmid like element S1 & S2
T-urf13 gene in T cytoplasm maize
Mitochondrial gene T-urf13 is a unique chimeric sequence
Effect of URF13 protein-
Degeneration of the tapetum during microsporogenesis
Disruption of pollen development leading to male cell abortion
55. Reversion to fertility
The reversion of CMS
strain to male fertility is
based on genetic change
Reversion can be
spontaneous or mutagen
induced
S-cytoplasm revert rather
frequently to male fertility
(than T & C). Maize-CMS Restoration of fertility system:
different classes of pollen grains are produced,
but not all of them are viable

58. Hybrid seed production using CGMS
Depends on the cytoplasm that produce male sterility and gene that
restores the fertility.
Steps:
Multiplication of CMS (A) line
Multiplication of Maintainer (B) line and Restorer (R) line
Production of Hybrid seed (A×R)
Maintenace of A & B lines:
Grow A line and its corresponding B line together in an isolated
plots.
Isolation distance for A×B production fields is at least 1000m.
A ratio of 1A:1B row is maintained.
Pollens produced by the B line fertilize the male sterile plant (A)
and seeds produced thus
Give rise to A line again.
59. Maintenance of R line:
Pearl millet R line could be either an inbred line or an Open
pollinated variety which can be multiplied as variety.
Seeds of R lines are produced by multiplying seeds in isolated
plots having distance 1000m.
Any plant in the R line plot appearing different from true R
type should be uprooted or rogued out before anthesis.
Purity of the parental seed is very important because it affects
the quality of the hybrid seeds that is generated.
60. Scheme of hybrid seed
production in pearl millet
Layout of hybrid seed
production plot
61. Identification of potential hybrid parents (A,B and R lines)
Potential male and female parents for hybrid seed production are
identified by crossing male fertile parent (Inbreds, variety,
germplasm, breeding stocks in advanced generations) to a male sterile
line (A line) and observing their corresponding hybrids in small plots
of an observation nursery.
A few plants of each cross are subjected to the bagging test i.e.
covering the few panicles with the paper bags before anthesis and
observing the seed set under the bag after few weeks.
62. CGMS
A1 Tift 23 A (Most of the world hybrids contains A1 Blood),
Burton,1958
A2, A3 Not stable cytoplasm
A4 Derived from P. glacum subspecies monodii
Does not have effective restorer
Used in forage hybrid production
63. Male sterility system in Brassica hybrid seed production
Cytoplasmic male-sterile
Stamen (anther and filament) and pollen grains are affected
It is divided into:
a. Autoplasmic
Arisen within a species as a result of spontaneous
mutational changes in the cytoplasm, most likely in the
mitochondrial genome
b. Alloplasmic
Arisen from intergeneric, interpecific or occasionally
intraspecific crosses and where the male sterility can be
interpreted as being due to incompatibility or poor co-operation
between nuclear genome of one species and the organellar
genome.
Another CMS can be a result of interspecific protoplast fusion
64. Raphanus or ogu system
Polima or pol system
Shiga-Thompson or nap system
Diplotaxis muralis or mur system
Tournefortii (tour) system
Moricandia arvensis or mori system
Chinese juncea or jun system
17 systems are available, only difference is the use of male sterile
cytoplasmic sources differs for each system
Nap system– B.napuus cross b/w winter & spring var.
pol system – B.napus var polima
mur system--Diplotaxis muralis x B.campestris cv Yukina
tour system– B.juncea collections
Various CMS systems
65. Ogu system:-
First discovered in Japanese radish (Raphanus sativus) by Ogura, 1968
B.napus genome was transferred into the back round of R.sativus (mst)
through intergeneric crosses followed by back crossing with B.napus.
CMS seedling under low temperature showed chlorosis , because
chloroplast of R.sativus is sensitive to cold, it is governed by cp-DNA ,
but mst is governed by mt DNA.
Protoplast fusion of R.sativus with B.napus carried out to have normal
green plants with ogu CMS characterisitics
This system now has been used for developing alloplasmic male sterile
line in B.juncea and B.campestris.
66. Genetic Male Sterility
GMS is governed by two genes either recessive or dominant
genes(Kaul,1988)
One more dominant gene is associated with development of male
sterility in B.napus type by means of transgenic male sterility

70. Presently genetic male sterility (GMS), cytoplasmic male sterility
(CMS) and thermo sensitive genetic male sterility (TGMS) lines are
available in India.
Development of agronomically superior genetic male-sterile lines in
safflower in India have resulted in the development and release of
spiny safflower hybrids DSH-129 and MKH-11 in 1997 and NARI-
H-15 in 2005, the first non-spiny hybrid safflower NARI-NH-1 in
2001.

73. Genetic Male Sterility (GMS):
Reported in upland, Egyptian and arboreum cottons.
In tetraploid cotton, male sterility is governed by both
recessive and dominant genes.
However, male sterility governed by recessive genes is used in
practical plant breeding
All three types of male sterility occurs (g mst,c mst,gc mst) in cotton
Sixteen different genes in tetraploid cottons (13 in G. hirsutum
and 3 in G. barbadense) and two in G. arboreum have been
identified for genetic male sterility.
Sterility is conditioned by dominant alleles at five loci viz, MS4,
MS7, MS10, MS11 and MS12 by recessive allele at other loci
viz. msl, ms2, ms3, ms13, ms14 (Dong A), ms15 (Lang A) and ms16
(81 A).

G. hirsutum line Gregg (MS 399) from USA is the basic
source of GMS possessing ms5 ms6 gene for male sterility.

In case of CMS, the originally discovered CMS sources involving G.
arboreum and G. anomalum cytoplasmic systems having interaction
with ms3 locus were not found effective or stable under different
environments.
The only stable and dependable CMS source under varied environment
was developed through the utilization of G. harknessii. The complete
genome of G.hirsutum was transferred into the G. harknessii cytoplasm.
A single dominant gene ‘Rf’ from G.harknessii is essential for fertility
restoration.
Fertility enhancer factor 'E' for this CMS restorer system was obtained
from a G.barbadense stock.
The harknessii system is reported to contribute to good agronomic
properties and attraction to honey bees.
