Transcriptome Analysis of the Late-Acting Self-Incompatibility Associated with RNase T2 Family in Camellia oleifera

Plants, 2023
The Camellia oil tree (Camellia oleifera Abel.) is an important nonwood forest species in China, and the majority of its cultivars are late-acting self-incompatibility (LSI) types.

S-RNase–mediated Gametophytic Self-Incompatibility is Ancestral in Eudicots [PDF]

Molecular Biology and Evolution, 2002
The evolutionary relationship between self-incompatibility systems in different families of flowering plants has long been a topic of interest. Physiological differences in the mode of gene action and the enormous sequence differences between genes with different modes of action suggest that many instances of self-incompatibility have arisen ...

Finding a Compatible Partner: Self-Incompatibility in European Pear (Pyrus communis); Molecular Control, Genetic Determination, and Impact on Fertilization and Fruit Set

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Pyrus species display a gametophytic self-incompatibility (GSI) system that actively prevents fertilization by self-pollen. The GSI mechanism in Pyrus is genetically controlled by a single locus, i.e., the S-locus, which includes at least two polymorphic

Maternal plant exposure to fire enhances offspring germination

Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Plants that resprout after fire experience drastically altered conditions in post‐fire environments. However, the effects of plant exposure to fire on offspring traits remain understudied. Many resprouting species are herbaceous plants that flower and fruit rapidly after fire (i.e., fire‐stimulated flowering), developing their seeds under ...

Selecting an appropriate method for expressing S locus F-box-S2 recombinant protein

Biotechnology Reports, 2017
A single locus (S locus) including at least two linked genes (female and male determinants) genetically controls the gametophytic self-incompatibility (GSI) in apple, which has evolved to avoid self-fertilization.

S-Genotype Profiles of Turkish Apricot Germplasm

Notulae Botanicae Horti Agrobotanici Cluj-Napoca, 2016
In flowering plants, gametophytic self-incompatibility, controlled by a single locus with several allelic variants, is one of the major problems preventing self-fertilization.

Beyond Starch: Towards a Scalable Potato Platform for Molecular Farming

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 7, Page 4619-4639, July 2026.
Re‐engineering potato as a biosafe and host‐optimised platform for plant molecular farming by integrating intrinsic biological traits with targeted engineering strategies. ABSTRACT Thirty‐five years after the first recombinant protein was produced in potato and 30 years after clinical trials of edible vaccines from its tubers, the crop is being ...

Recent and Ancient Signature of Balancing Selection around the S-Locus in Arabidopsis halleri and A. lyrata [PDF]

, 2013
Balancing selection can maintain different alleles over long evolutionary times. Beyond this direct effect on the molecular targets of selection, balancing selection is also expected to increase neutral polymorphism in linked genome regions, in inverse ...

The abundance of pollen coat small signaling proteins shows limited convergence between independent selfing transitions in Arabidopsis and Capsella

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 3460-3474, June 2026.
Summary In plants, a key example of convergence is the repeated evolution of floral traits associated with the transition from outcrossing to self‐fertilization, often resulting in the ‘selfing syndrome’ (e.g. reduced flower size and loss of scent). However, potentially overlooked changes concern the pollen coat, which plays a role in different aspects
