Point Mutations in Centromeric Histone Induce Post-zygotic Incompatibility and Uniparental Inheritance. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The centromeric histone 3 variant (CENH3, aka CENP-A) is essential for the segregation of sister chromatids during mitosis and meiosis. To better define CENH3 functional constraints, we complemented a null allele in Arabidopsis with a variety of mutant ...

The role of late-acting self-incompatibility and early-acting inbreeding depression in governing female fertility in monkshood, Aconitum kusnezoffii. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Reduced seed yields following self-pollination have repeatedly been observed, but the underlying mechanisms remain elusive when self-pollen tubes can readily grow into ovaries, because pre-, post-zygotic late-acting self-incompatibility (LSI), or early ...

Reproductive success through high pollinator visitation rates despite self incompatibility in an endangered wallflower [PDF]

open access: yes, 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

High cross-pollination rate of Greek oregano (O. vulgare ssp. hirtum) with Common oregano (O. vulgare ssp. vulgare) under open field conditions as revealed by microsatellite marker analysis

open access: yesBiotechnology & Biotechnological Equipment, 2023
We studied the mode of pollination in Greek oregano (Origanum vulgare ssp. hirtum) under both controlled and open pollination conditions. When grown indoors without the presence of insects, Greek oregano plants did not develop any seeds, indicating a low

Comparison of different classical and molecular methods for identifying self-incompatibility in two olive cultivars

open access: yesSpanish Journal of Agricultural Research, 2019
Aim of study: To determine compatibility relationships and select suitable pollinizers for two olive (Olea europaea L.) cultivars (‘Amygdalolia’ and ‘Konservalia’). Area of study: The Kazeroun Olive Research Station, Fars, Iran.

Cenh3: An Emerging Player in Haploid Induction Technology. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
True-breeding lines are required for the development and production of crop varieties. In a classical breeding approach these lines are obtained through inbreeding, and often 7-9 generations of inbreeding is performed to achieve the desired level of ...

Enhancement of developmental defects in the boron‐deficient maize mutant tassel‐less1 by reduced auxin levels

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Background Plant responses to deficiencies of the micronutrient boron are diverse and go beyond the well‐characterized function of boron in cell wall crosslinking. To explain these phenotypic discrepancies, hypotheses about interactions of boron with various phytohormones have been proposed, particularly auxin.

Inheritance of disc flower color in Helianthus petiolaris [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Disc flowers of Helianthus petiolaris (Asteraceae) are usually purple reddue to anthocyanin pigments in corolla lobes, style and stigma. However, yellow-flowered plants are occasionally found.
