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 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

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.

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

Towards F1 Hybrid Seed Potato Breeding [PDF]
, 2011 Compared to other major food crops, progress in potato yield as the result of breeding efforts is very slow. Genetic gains cannot be fixed in potato due to obligatory out-breeding.

Zoologia (Curitiba), 2015 Legitimate flowers visitors pollinate the flower during the visit and thus influence the production of fruits and seeds. We tested whether the visitation rate of potential pollinators is associated with the amount of seeds per fruit produced by the self ...

Self-compatibility in Prunus species : diversity of mutations [PDF]
, 2012 Self-compatibility (SC) is an interesting horticultural trait. Molecular approaches have been recently applied to the elucidation of the interacting pollen-pistil mechanism and to the identification of the genes involved in pistil-pollen recognition ...

Oriental lily hybrids engineered to resist aphid attack [PDF]
, 2009 Establishing in vitro bulb scale cultures of lily cultivars followed by callusing and regeneration after gene transfer was found to be not very successful in our hands, except for ‘Snow Queen’.

Self-(In)compatibility Systems: Target Traits for Crop-Production, Plant Breeding, and Biotechnology
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020 Self-incompatibility (SI) mechanisms prevent self-fertilization in flowering plants based on specific discrimination between self- and non-self pollen.
