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

The effect of sheltered load on reproduction in Solanum carolinense, a species with variable self-incompatibility [PDF]
, 2009 In previous studies, we have investigated the strength of self-incompatibility (SI) in Solanum carolinense, a highly successful weed with a fully functional SI system that inhabits early successional and other disturbed habitats.

Evolution towards self‐compatibility when mates are limited [PDF]
Journal of Evolutionary Biology, 2009 AbstractTheory of plant mating system evolution predicts the spread of self‐compatibility (SC) in a predominantly self‐incompatible population when inbreeding depression (ID; the decline in fitness because of selfing) is small and when compatible mates are limited.

Independent origins of self‐compatibility in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
Molecular Ecology, 2007 AbstractThe evolution from outcrossing based on self‐incompatibility (SI) to a selfing system is one of the most prevalent transitions in flowering plants. It has been suggested that the loss of SI in Arabidopsis thaliana is associated with pseudogene formation at the SCR male component of the S locus.

The origin of the self‐compatible almond ‘Supernova’
Plant Breeding, 2008 AbstractThe almond cultivar ‘Supernova’ is reported in the literature as a late‐flowering self‐compatible mutant, obtained by the irradiation of the early‐flowering self‐incompatible cultivar ‘Fascionello’. Our work to investigate the molecular basis of this form of self‐compatibility has called into question the origin of ‘Supernova’. Test selfing was

Self-compatible Seedlings of the Cutleaf Hazelnut [PDF]
HortScience, 2006 The cutleaf hazelnut [Corylus avellana L. f. heterophylla (Loud.) Rehder] is an ornamental form with strongly dissected leaf morphology. Its stigmas express incompatibility allele S20 but none of the other 25 S-alleles was detected with fluorescence microscopy.

Agronomy, 2020 Wild blueberry, Vaccinium angustifolium Aiton, for the most part requires cross-pollination. However, there is a continuum across a gradient from zero to 100% in self-compatibility. We previously found by sampling many fields that 20–25% of clones during

A micromechanics-enhanced finite element formulation for modelling heterogeneous materials
, 2011 In the analysis of composite materials with heterogeneous microstructures, full resolution of the heterogeneities using classical numerical approaches can be computationally prohibitive.
