  2. Sperm-derived signal activates cell division of the female gamete If we could find a way to #propagate crop plants by #asexual reproduction through seeds – known as #apomixis – it would revolutionize #agriculture.

  3. Want to get to know our new professor Charles Underwood? We interviewed him about his plans at @Radboud_uni :
    "I want to address fundamental questions in reproduction biology, as a foundation for generating new biotechnologies useful in crop breeding."
