Gametophytic self-incompatibility in Rosaceae fruit trees
Rosaceae fruit trees are characterized by gametophytic self-incompatibility, with their production typically requiring artificial pollination or pollination tree is required in production.

Research Progress on Calcium Ion in Gametophytic Self-Incompatibility
Calcium ions are involved in plant self-incompatibility response as important signaling substances in cells. In the sporophytic self-incompatibility response, Ca2+ enters the stigma papilla cells and plays a key role in inhibiting incompatible pollen ...

Evolutionary patterns at the
Background Within Rosaceae, the RNase based gametophytic self-incompatibility (GSI) system has been studied at the molecular level in Maloideae and Prunus species that have been diverging for, at least, 32 million years.

Population structure and genetic bottleneck in sweet cherry estimated with SSRs and the gametophytic self-incompatibility locus [PDF]
Background Domestication and breeding involve the selection of particular phenotypes, limiting the genomic diversity of the population and creating a bottleneck.

Characterisation of the Gillenia S-locus provides insight into evolution of the nonself-recognition self-incompatibility system in apple [PDF]
Self-incompatibility (SI) in plants has evolved independently multiple times and S-RNase-based gametophytic self-incompatibility (GSI) is most common.

Cytoskeleton, Transglutaminase and Gametophytic Self-Incompatibility in the Malinae (Rosaceae). [PDF]
Self-incompatibility (SI) is a complex process, one out of several mechanisms that prevent plants from self-fertilizing to maintain and increase the genetic variability. This process leads to the rejection of the male gametophyte and requires the co-participation of numerous molecules.

The cultivated almond displays a gametophytic self-incompatibility system, which avoids self-fertilization, and it is controlled by a multi-allelic locus (S-locus) containing two genes specifically expressed in pistil (S-RNase) and pollen (SFB).

The structure and allelic diversity of the self-incompatibility locus (S-locus) in diploid potatoes inferred from genome sequences and transcriptome data from styles and pollen. [PDF]
Abstract Gametophytic self‐incompatibility (GSI) is a reproductive strategy to prevent inbreeding and promote outcrossing. Studies to understand molecular and evolutionary aspects of the self‐compatibility (SC)/self‐incompatibility (SI) system in the Solanaceae have been conducted using several genera including Petunia Juss., Nicotiana L., and Solanum ...

is one of the mechanisms that have evolved to encourage outbreeding in flowering plants and is defined as “the inability of a fertile hermaphrodite seed plant to produce zygotes after self-pollination” (de Nettancourt, 1977). The effectiveness of SI in promoting outbreeding is believed to be one of the most important factors that ensured the evolu ...
