Two Loci Contribute Epistastically to Heterospecific Pollen Rejection, a Postmating Isolating Barrier Between Species

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2017
Recognition and rejection of heterospecific male gametes occurs in a broad range of taxa, although the complexity of mechanisms underlying these components of postmating cryptic female choice is poorly understood.

New insights on the expression patterns of specific Arabinogalactan proteins in reproductive tissues of Arabidopsis thaliana

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Arabinogalactan proteins (AGPs) are hydroxyproline-rich glycoproteins containing a high proportion of carbohydrates, widely distributed in the plant kingdom and ubiquitously present in land plants. AGPs have long been suggested to play important roles in

Whole Genome Analysis of Gene Expression Reveals Coordinated Activation of Signaling and Metabolic Pathways during Pollen-Pistil Interactions in Arabidopsis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Plant reproduction depends on the concerted activation of many genes to ensure correct communication between pollen and pistil. Here, we queried the whole transcriptome of Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) in order to identify genes with specific ...

Incompatible pollen abortion and late-acting self-incompatibility in Schima superba

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
In angiosperms, self-incompatibility (SI) is a common and widespread mechanism for plant prevention of inbreeding, and late-acting self-incompatibility (LSI) may be ancestral in the group.

An insight into the reproductive success in an interspecific cross of Sesamum

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2021
The study deals with pollen morphology, pollen fertility assessment and pollen pistil interaction in two species of Sesame viz., Sesamum indicum (CO 1) and Sesamum alatum.

The pollen receptor kinase LePRK2 mediates growth-promoting signals and positively regulates pollen germination and tube growth [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In flowering plants, the process of pollen germination and tube growth is required for successful fertilization. A pollen receptor kinase from tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), LePRK2, has been implicated in signaling during pollen germination and tube ...

Sexual incompatibility in Rosaceae fruit tree species: molecular interactions and evolutionary dynamics

open access: yesBiologia Plantarum, 2012
Fruit crops have a growing economic importance worldwide and molecular genetics might be useful in solving many problems that arise during commercial production.

Microhabitat and Pollinator Differentiation Drive Reproductive Isolation between Two Sympatric Salvia Species (Lamiaceae)

open access: yesPlants, 2022
Evaluation of multiple barriers contributing to reproductive isolation between sympatric plant species is key to understanding the mechanism of their coexistence; however, such investigations in biodiversity hotspots are still rare.

Pollen-pistil interactions and self-incompatibility in the Asteraceae: new insights from studies of Senecio squalidus (Oxford ragwort) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background Pollen-pistil interactions are an essential prelude to fertilization in angiosperms and determine compatibility/incompatibility. Pollen-pistil interactions have been studied at a molecular and cellular level in relatively few families.
