Methods are described herein for producing hybrid seed using male-sterile plants wherein reproductive function is restored by treatment of mutant plants with selected plant hormones. Plants comprising mutations in the allene oxide synthase gene are functionally male-sterile and are useful for the production of hybrid seed, wherein fertility is restored in the plants by treatment with jasmonic acid. Hybrid seed production is simplified and improved by this invention. The present invention also includes plants comprising mutations in genes affecting allene oxide synthase and/or hydroperoxide lyase.
