Evaluation of the risks of contaminating low erucic acid rapeseed with high erucic rapeseed and identification of mitigation strategies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
High erucic acid rapeseed (HEAR) oil is under increasing demand for various industrial applications. However, many growers are concerned that if they grow the crop, they will not be able to revert to other rapeseed varieties in the future due to the risk

Extent of cross-fertilization in Orobanche cumana Wallr.

open access: yesBiologia Plantarum, 2013
Sunflower broomrape (Orobanche cumana Wallr.) is considered a self-fertilizing species, but there is no indication as to whether it is strictly self-fertilized or that it presents some extent of cross-fertilization.

The explosive flowers of Marsypianthes chamaedrys (Lamiaceae) resort to self-pollination and improve reproduction

open access: yesActa Botânica Brasílica, 2022
Explosive pollination includes a rapid release of floral sexual elements that are enclosed in modified petals, and a subsequent contact with pollinators’ body.

Factors affecting reproductive success in three entomophilous orchid species in Hungary [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The reproductive success of orchids is traditionally estimated by determining the fruit-set of individuals. Here, we investigated both the fruit and the seed production of three orchid species and the factors that may affect individual fruit-set, like ...

Challenges for self-compatibility identification in almond [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Several approaches have been used to assess self-compatibility in almond, such as fruit set after self-pollination and bagging, pollen tube growth, and the more recent Sf allele identification by molecular markers and gene sequencing.

Changes in Reproductive Traits in Physalis philadelphica; An Unexpected Shift Toward Self-Incompatibility in a Domesticated Annual Fruit Crop

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Domestication is an evolutionary process with an impact on plant reproduction. Many domesticated plants are self-compatible (i.e., they lack mechanisms to reject their own pollen), but few domesticated plants are fully or partially self-incompatible.

Comparative pollination role of stamens and breeding system in three species of Commelina (Commelinaceae) in Ile-Ife, Nigeria

open access: yesActa Botânica Brasílica, 2013
This study investigated pollination mechanisms and breeding systems in five Commelina variants: two subspecies of Commelina diffusa (C. diffusa subsp. aquatica and C. diffusa subsp. montana, each having two staminodes); two variants of C.
