In countries new to producing ‘Manzanillo’ olive trees (Olea europaea), free cross-pollination is often insufficient to obtain high levels of fruit set. An appropriate pollination design is therefore essential to ensure a timely, abundant, and compatible

Blooming phenology and fertility of sour cherry cultivars selected in Hungary
Experiments were conducted during the period between 1972 and 2002 at three sites in Hungary. At Érd 97, Helvetia 10, and Újfehértó, 3 cultivars were studied in variety collections.

Variability of the data indicating the fertility of different plum varieties
Self-fertility and fertility at conditions of open pollination in plum varieties is strictly determined by genetic factors. However, rates of fruit set are highly variable according to growing sites as well as to seasons, which may result from a couple ...

Open-Pollinated vs. Hybrid Maize Cultivars [PDF]
The history of maize breeding methods in the USA is reviewed to examine the question of types of maize cultivars in sustainable agriculture. The yield potential of OP cultivars was much higher than national average yields prior to 1930, but hybrid cultivars today often out-yield OP cultivars by 50–100% or more.

An open-pollinated design for mapping imprinting genes in natural populations [PDF]
With the increasing recognition of its role in trait and disease development, it is crucial to account for genetic imprinting to illustrate the genetic architecture of complex traits. Genetic mapping can be innovated to test and estimate effects of genetic imprinting in a segregating population derived from experimental crosses.

Comparative reproduction mechanisms of three species of Ocimum L. (Lamiaceae)
Ocimum species have a combination of reproductive system which varies with the locality and cultivar. We have studied here the reproductive mechanisms of five variants of three Ocimum species in Nigeria, namely: Ocimum canum Sims., O. basilicum L., and O.

Heterotic Patterns among Open-pollinated Sweet Corn Cultivars [PDF]
Heterotic patterns in sweet corn are weakly defined. Most sweet corn inbreds are descended from three open-pollinated cultivars: `Golden Bantam', Stowell's Evergreen', and `Country Gentleman'. Heterotic and phylogenetic relationships among these three cultivars and others are not clearly known.
