Abstract:
The Jekyll gene, required for sexual reproduction, exists in two much diverged allelic variants that share little similarity in sequences but have common functions of the encoded proteins. Jekyll was found only in species of the related tribes Bromeae and Triticeae suggesting its role in tribe separation within the Poaceae. The emergence of Jekyll coincided with innovations in grain structure of the Bromeae and Triticeae lineages and identifies the Jekyll genes as lineage specific.
