Contrasted patterns of molecular evolution in dominant and recessive self-incompatibility haplotypes in Arabidopsis. [PDF]

PLoS Genetics, 2012
Self-incompatibility has been considered by geneticists a model system for reproductive biology and balancing selection, but our understanding of the genetic basis and evolution of this molecular lock-and-key system has remained limited by the extreme ...

S-LOCUS EARLY FLOWERING 3 is exclusively present in the genomes of short-styled buckwheat plants that exhibit heteromorphic self-incompatibility. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
The different forms of flowers in a species have attracted the attention of many evolutionary biologists, including Charles Darwin. In Fagopyrum esculentum (common buckwheat), the occurrence of dimorphic flowers, namely short-styled and long-styled ...

The CACTA transposon Bot1 played a major role in Brassica genome divergence and gene proliferation [PDF]

, 2008
We isolated and characterized a Brassica C genome-specific CACTA element, which was designated Bot1 (Brassica oleracea transposon 1). After analysing phylogenetic relationships, copy numbers and sequence similarity of Bot1 and Bot1 analogues in B ...

Overcoming Self-Incompatibility in Diploid Potato Using CRISPR-Cas9

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Potato breeding can be redirected to a diploid inbred/F1 hybrid variety breeding strategy if self-compatibility can be introduced into diploid germplasm.

Characterization of an S-locus receptor protein kinase-like gene from peach [PDF]

Tree Physiology, 2005
A receptor-like protein kinase gene (Ppsrkl1) was isolated from a peach (Prunus persica (L.) Batsch.) bark cDNA library prepared with RNAs isolated from bark collected in December (cold acclimated). Sequence analysis indicated that this gene is related to the S-locus family of receptor protein kinases (SRKs) and that it shares greatest homology with ...

Reproductive success through high pollinator visitation rates despite self incompatibility in an endangered wallflower [PDF]

, 2016
PREMISE OF THE STUDY: Self incompatibility (SI) in rare plants presents a unique challenge—SI protects plants from inbreeding depression, but requires a sufficient number of mates and xenogamous pollination. Does SI persist in an endangered polyploid? Is

Characterization of S haplotype in a new self-compatible Brassica rapa cultivar Dahuangyoucai

Czech Journal of Genetics and Plant Breeding, 2013
The most important Brassica species, B. rapa, is naturally self-incompatible. Self-compatible mutants would be useful for dissecting the molecular mechanism of self-incompatibility (SI), a process that promotes outcrossing by recognizing and refusing ...

A general stochastic model for sporophytic self-incompatibility [PDF]

, 2011
Disentangling the processes leading populations to extinction is a major topic in ecology and conservation biology. The difficulty to find a mate in many species is one of these processes.

Self-(in)compatibility in apricot germplasm is controlled by two major loci, S and M

BMC Plant Biology, 2017
Background Apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.) exhibits a gametophytic self-incompatibility (GSI) system and it is mostly considered as a self-incompatible species though numerous self-compatible exceptions occur.

Cryptic MHC Polymorphism Revealed but Not Explained by Selection on the Class IIB Peptide-Binding Region [PDF]

, 2012
The immune genes of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) are characterized by extraordinarily high levels of nucleotide and haplotype diversity. This variation is maintained by pathogen-mediated balancing selection that is operating on the peptide ...
