Genes can be introduced into plants that confer desirable traits such as, drought and stress tolerance, insect and pest resistance, as well as environmental qualities such as phyto-remediation. However, possibility for transgene escape to wild and non-transformed species raises commercial and ecological concerns. Disclosed herein are methods and compositions for generating sterile plants for the prevention of transgene escape.

On peut introduire dans des plantes des gènes leur conférant des caractéristiques telles que la tolérance à la sécheresse ou au stress, la résistance aux insectes et aux nuisibles, ainsi que des qualités liées à l'environnement telles que la phytoremédiation. Cependant les possibilités de dissémination des transgènes à des espèces sauvages et non transformées suscitent des préoccupations d'ordre commercial et écologique. La présente invention porte sur des procédés et compositions permettant d'obtenir des plantes stériles afin de prévenir la dissémination des transgènes.
