MORPHOLOGICAL AND PHYSILOGICAL STUDIES ON FLOWERING, POLLINATION AND FRUITING OF “PICUAL” OLIVE TREES II- EFFECT OF SELF, OPEN, AND CROSS POLLINATION ON FRUIT SET, FRUIT DROP AND FRUIT CHARACTERISTICS [PDF]
The influence of self, open and cross pollination (with two pollinizers, i.e. Kronaki and Coratina olive cvs.) on fruiting of Picual olive trees were studied during 1997 and 1998 seasons under Giza conditions.

Benefits of Cross-Pollination in Vegetable Soybean Edamame
Dependence on cross-pollination varies widely among wild and cultivated plant species. Even among crops that are less dependent on outcrossing, such as soybean (Glycine max L.), cross-pollination can improve fruit quality and commercial value. There is a
