Floral mechanisms promote pollination success and reduce the incidence of self‐pollination in a fly‐pollinated self‐incompatible orchid [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionAmong flowering plants, self‐incompatibility is considered the most efficient system for avoiding self‐fertilization. However, many self‐incompatible plants have also evolved floral mechanisms to reduce sexual conflict.

Wind-Dragged Corolla Enhances Self-Pollination: A New Mechanism of Delayed Self-Pollination [PDF]
Annals of Botany, 2007 Delayed self-pollination is a mechanism that allows animal-pollinated plants to outcross while ensuring seed production in the absence of pollinators. This study aims to explore a new mechanism of delayed self-pollination facilitated by wind-driven corolla abscission in Incarvillea sinensis var.

MORPHOLOGICAL AND PHYSILOGICAL STUDIES ON FLOWERING, POLLINATION AND FRUITING OF “PICUAL” OLIVE TREES II- EFFECT OF SELF, OPEN, AND CROSS POLLINATION ON FRUIT SET, FRUIT DROP AND FRUIT CHARACTERISTICS [PDF]
Journal of Plant Production, 2002 The influence of self, open and cross pollination (with two pollinizers, i.e. Kronaki and Coratina olive cvs.) on fruiting of Picual olive trees were studied during 1997 and 1998 seasons under Giza conditions.
