Pollen Tube Growth and Self-Compatibility in Almond [PDF]
Plants, 2013 Although pollen tube growth has been an important criterion for self-compatibility evaluation in almond, there is not a clear-cut separation between positive and negative growth of pollen tubes in the different genotypes.

Repeated evolution of self-compatibility for reproductive assurance. [PDF]
Nat Commun, 2018 Sexual reproduction in eukaryotes requires the fusion of two compatible gametes of opposite sexes or mating types. To meet the challenge of finding a mating partner with compatible gametes evolutionary mechanisms such as hermaphroditism and self ...

Dominance in self-compatibility between subgenomes of allopolyploid Arabidopsis kamchatica shown by transgenic restoration of self-incompatibility [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2023 The evolutionary transition to self-compatibility facilitates polyploid speciation. In Arabidopsis relatives, the self-incompatibility system is characterized by epigenetic dominance modifiers, among which small RNAs suppress the expression of a ...

Transition to Self-compatibility Associated With Dominant S-allele in a Diploid Siberian Progenitor of Allotetraploid Arabidopsis kamchatica Revealed by Arabidopsis lyrata Genomes. [PDF]
Mol Biol Evol, 2023 A transition to selfing can be beneficial when mating partners are scarce, for example, due to ploidy changes or at species range edges. Here we explain how self-compatibility evolved in diploid Siberian Arabidopsis lyrata, and how it contributed to the ...

Identification of Candidate Genes for Self-Compatibility in Perennial Ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.). [PDF]
Front Plant Sci, 2021 Self-incompatibility (SI) is a genetic mechanism preventing self-pollination in approximately 40% of plant species. Two multiallelic loci, called S and Z, control the gametophytic SI system of the grass family (Poaceae), which contains all major forage ...

Neofunctionalisation of the Sli gene leads to self-compatibility and facilitates precision breeding in potato. [PDF]
Nat Commun, 2021 Genetic gain in potato is hampered by the heterozygous tetraploid genome of cultivated potato. Converting potato into a diploid inbred-line based F1-hybrid crop provides a promising route towards increased genetic gain.

Evolution of self-compatibility by a mutant S<sub>m</sub>-RNase in citrus. [PDF]
Nat Plants, 2020 Self-incompatibility (SI) is an important mechanism that prevents self-fertilization and inbreeding in flowering plants. The most widespread SI system utilizes S ribonucleases (S-RNases) and S-locus F-boxes (SLFs) as S determinants.

The origin and widespread occurrence of Sli-based self-compatibility in potato. [PDF]
Theor Appl Genet, 2020 Self-compatible (SC) diploid potatoes allow innovative potato breeding. Therefore, the Sli gene, originally described in S. chacoense, has received much attention. In elite S. tuberosum diploids, spontaneous berry set is occasionally observed.

Self-compatibility in peach [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch]: patterns of diversity surrounding the S-locus and analysis of SFB alleles. [PDF]
Hortic Res, 2020 Self-incompatibility (SI) to self-compatibility (SC) transition is one of the most frequent and prevalent evolutionary shifts in flowering plants. Prunus L. (Rosaceae) is a genus of over 200 species most of which exhibit a Gametophytic SI system. Peach [
