Abstract
Research on the phenomenon of male sterility in maize began in the 1930s. Since then, there have been many achievements in this matter, which have enabled the creation of a functional CGMS system, successfully used in the seed production of hybrid maize varieties. In the history of research on this phenomenon, we also encounter examples of spectacular errors resulting from excessive genetic uniformity of sources of male sterility, used on a large scale in seed production. This paper is a review of historical and current literature reports on studies on cytoplasmic-gene male sterility in maize.
