Incompatible pollen tubes in the quince style and their impact on fertilization success
Self-incompatibility presents one of the challenges in modern fruit production. It can be correlated with a lower yield of self-incompatible cultivars which also demand the planting of the pollinisers.

Preventing self-fertilization: Insights from Ziziphus species
The fitness of self-progeny individuals is inferior to that of their outcrossed counterparts, resulting in a reduction in a plant population’s ability to survive and reproduce.

Self-Incompatibility of Camellia weiningensis Y.K. Li.
This study compared the pollen tube growth, fruit setting, and seed setting characteristics of Camellia weiningensis Y.K. Li. under self- and cross-pollination to identify its self-incompatibility characteristics and types. C.

Expression and trans-specific polymorphism of self-incompatibility RNases in Coffea (Rubiaceae) [PDF]
Self-incompatibility (SI) is widespread in the angiosperms, but identifying the biochemical components of SI mechanisms has proven to be difficult in most lineages. Coffea (coffee; Rubiaceae) is a genus of old-world tropical understory trees in which the

Parthenocarpy and Self-Incompatibility in Mandarins
Citrus reproductive biology is complex. One of its characteristic features is parthenocarpy that enables seedless fruit production. Citrus parthenocarpy and self-incompatibility knowledge is only partial and sometimes discrepant.

In most species of Pleurothallidinae, the self-incompatibility site occurs in the stylar canal inside the column, which is typical of gametophytic self-incompatibility (GSI).

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

There are several different types of self-incompatibility in different flowering plant species, and there has recently been progress in understanding their molecular genetics by using combined molecular and evolutionary approaches. Questions include the mechanism of self-incompatibility (both the nature of the proteins encoded by the genes and whether ...

Gametophytic Self-Incompatibility Systems [PDF]
is one of the mechanisms that have evolved to encourage outbreeding in flowering plants and is defined as “the inability of a fertile hermaphrodite seed plant to produce zygotes after self-pollination” (de Nettancourt, 1977). The effectiveness of SI in promoting outbreeding is believed to be one of the most important factors that ensured the evolu ...
