    Solution

    Both TGMS and PGMS systems are commonly used in rice breeding to achieve male sterility. These systems involve specific genes that cause the male reproductive organs in rice plants to become sterile under certain temperature conditions. The sterility is reversible, allowing for controlled hybridization and seed production in rice.
