Abstract
The invention relates to a dominant mutation in the TDM gene leading to the production of 2n gametes in plants, to the plants comprising said mutation, and to their use in plant breeding. The invention relates also to plants in which the dominant mutation in the TDM gene is combined with the inactivation of a gene involved in meiotic recombination in plants and a gene involved in the monopolar orientation of the kinetochores during meiosis. These plants which produce apomeiotic gametes are also useful in plant breeding.
