Abstract  

Maize (Zea mays L.) genic male-sterile mutant has been widely studied for its biological significance on pollen developmental study and commercial value in hybrid vigor utilization. As the development of molecular biotechnology, several genic male-sterile genes has been cloned and characterized in maize, leading to potential use of genetic engineering male-sterility in commercial hybrid seed production. Here, the progress of cytological characterization, gene cloning and molecular mechanism of genic male-sterility study in maize are reviewe, and potential application approaches of genic male-sterile genes in maize hybrid production is discussed.

Key words： Zea mays      Genic male sterility      Gene cloning      Molecular mechanism      Hybrid vigor utilization
