Mitosis instead of Meiosis (Apomeiosis)<br />
+ Cross with the genome elimination line<br />
= Clonal seeds !<br />

Mitosis instead of Meiosis (Apomeiosis)<br />
+ Cross with the genome elimination line<br />
= Clonal seeds !<br />
Current limitations:<br />
- dependency on the cross<br />
- Efficiency (35%)<br />
- Not a crop!<br />
