Oakleaf: an S locus-linked mutation of Primula vulgaris that affects leaf and flower development. [PDF]
•In Primula vulgaris outcrossing is promoted through reciprocal herkogamy with insect-mediated cross-pollination between pin and thrum form flowers. Development of heteromorphic flowers is coordinated by genes at the S locus.

The identification of the Rosa S-locus and implications on the evolution of the Rosaceae gametophytic self-incompatibility systems [PDF]
In Rosaceae species, two gametophytic self-incompatibility (GSI) mechanisms are described, the Prunus self-recognition system and the Maleae (Malus/Pyrus/Sorbus) non-self- recognition system.

Integration of genetic and physical maps of the Primula vulgaris S locus and localization by chromosome in situ hybridization. [PDF]
•Heteromorphic flower development in Primula is controlled by the S locus. The S locus genes, which control anther position, pistil length and pollen size in pin and thrum flowers, have not yet been characterized.

Genomic analyses elucidate S‐locus evolution in response to intra‐specific losses of distyly in Primula vulgaris [PDF]
Distyly, a floral dimorphism that promotes outcrossing, is controlled by a hemizygous genomic region known as the S‐locus. Disruptions of genes within the S‐locus are responsible for the loss of distyly and the emergence of homostyly, a floral ...

Recent and ancient signature of balancing selection around the S-locus in Arabidopsis halleri and A. lyrata. [PDF]
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 ...

Pan-S-locus analysis reveals insights into the origin and evolution of self-incompatibility in the orange subfamily [PDF]
Background Self-incompatibility is controlled by a highly polymorphic supergene complex, the S-locus, which is structurally complex, rich in repetitive sequences, and varies in length from hundreds of kilobases to tens of megabases across different plant

Characterisation of the Gillenia S-locus provides insight into evolution of the nonself-recognition self-incompatibility system in apple [PDF]
Self-incompatibility (SI) in plants has evolved independently multiple times and S-RNase-based gametophytic self-incompatibility (GSI) is most common.

Development of self-compatible B. rapa by RNAi-mediated S locus gene silencing. [PDF]
The self-incompatibility (SI) system is genetically controlled by a single polymorphic locus known as the S-locus in the Brassicaceae. Pollen rejection occurs when the stigma and pollen share the same S-haplotype.

An S-locus independent pollen factor confers self-compatibility in 'Katy' apricot. [PDF]
Loss of pollen-S function in Prunus self-compatible cultivars has been mostly associated with deletions or insertions in the S-haplotype-specific F-box (SFB) genes.

Molecular Approaches to Overcome Self-Incompatibility in Diploid Potatoes
There has been an increased interest in true potato seeds (TPS) as planting material because of their advantages over seed tubers. TPS produced from a tetraploid heterozygous bi-parental population produces non-uniform segregating progenies, which have ...
