Pollination and late-acting self-incompatibility in Cyrtanthus breviflorus (Amaryllidaceae): implications for seed production. [PDF]
Animal pollination is typically an uncertain process that interacts with self-incompatibility status to determine reproductive success. Seed set is often pollen-limited, but species with late-acting self-incompatibility (SI) may be particularly vulnerable, if self-pollen deposition results in ovule discounting.

Do s genes or deleterious recessives control late-acting self-incompatibility in Handroanthus heptaphyllus (Bignoniaceae)? A diallel study with four full-sib progeny arrays. [PDF]
AbstractBackground and AimsGenetically controlled self-incompatibility (SI) mechanisms constrain selfing and thus have contributed to the evolutionary diversity of flowering plants. In homomorphic gametophytic SI (GSI) and homomorphic sporophytic SI (SSI), genetic control is usually by the single multi-allelic locus S.

Histological study of post-pollination events in Spathodea campanulata beauv. (Bignoniaceae), a species with late-acting self-incompatibility. [PDF]
The reproductive biology of Spathodea campanulata was investigated by means of hand-pollination experiments, observations of pollen tube growth using fluorescence microscopy, and serial sections of ovules in selfed and crossed pistils. Only cross-pollinated flowers developed fruits, and all selfed flowers abscised within 3-4 d.

Self-incompatibility (SI) is a kind of plant fertilization obstacle, which can prevent the harmful effects of inbreeding decline, but it hinders the breeding of inbred lines.

Most heterostylous species show self- and intra-morph incompatibility and models established for such taxa have traditionally been applied to the evolution of stylar dimorphism and heterostyly in Narcissus, a genus with late-acting self-incompatibility ...

A new case of late-acting self-incompatibility in Capparis L. (Brassicaceae): C. jacobinae Moric. ex Eichler, an endemic andromonoecious species of the Caatinga, Pernambuco State, Brazil Novo registro de auto-incompatibilidade de ação tardia em Capparis (Brassicaceae): C. jacobinae Moric. ex Eichler, uma espécie andromonóica endêmica da Caatinga, PE, Brasil [PDF]
We studied the reproductive system of Capparis jacobinae Moric ex Eichler (Brassicaceae), based on controlled hand-pollination and observation of pollen tube growth made in a fluorescence microscope.

Reproductive mode, i.e., the proportion of individuals produced by clonality, selfing and outcrossing in populations, determines how hereditary material is transmitted through generations. It shapes genetic diversity and its structure over time and space,
