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.

Comparative gene mapping in Arabidopsis lyrata chromosomes 6 and 7 and A thaliana chromosome IV: evolutionary history, rearrangements and local recombination rates [PDF]
, 2006 We have increased the density of genetic markers on the Arabidopsis lyrata chromosomes AL6 and AL7 corresponding to the A. thaliana chromosome IV, in order to determine chromosome rearrangements between these two species, and to compare recombination ...

Arguments for and against self and non-self root recognition in plants [PDF]
, 2014 Root–root interaction research gained more and more attention over the past few years. Roots are pivotal for plant survival because they ensure uptake of water and nutrients.

The role of autophagy in the Arabidopsis self-incompatible pollen rejection response
Autophagy Reports, 2022 In plants, macroautophagy/autophagy is an essential mechanism responsible for a large variety of processes throughout the plant’s lifecycle, including nutrient processing, immunity, stress responses and senescence.

Plants, 2022 Cabbage (Brassica oleracea L. var. capitata) self-incompatibility is important for heterosis. However, the seed production of elite hybrid cannot be facilitated by honey bees due to the cross-incompatibility of the two parents.

Toward in vitro fertilization in Brachiaria spp. [PDF]
, 2010 Brachiaria are forage grasses widely cultivated in tropical areas. In vitro pollination was applied to accessions of Brachiaria spp. by placing pollen of non-dehiscent anthers on a solid medium near isolated ovaries.

Sporophytic Self-Incompatability
, 2017 © 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. Most flowering plants are hermaphrodites with flowers that have both male and female reproductive organs. Despite being able to self-fertilize, numerous mechanisms have evolved to prevent this from happening. The most common of these mechanisms is self-incompatibility (SI), a genetically controlled system that ...

S-RNase-mediated self-incompatibility [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2003 The Solanaceae, Rosaceae, and Scrophulariaceae families all possess an RNase-mediated self-incompatibility mechanism through which their pistils can recognize and reject self-pollen to prevent inbreeding. The highly polymorphic S-locus controls the self-incompatibility interaction, and the S-locus of the Solanaceae has been shown to be a multi-gene ...

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 ...
