Continued Self-pollination in Cotton [PDF]
IN NATURE of Sept. 1, 1928, p. 314, Mr. G. L. Kottur distinguishes between “the deterioration of a selection due to selfing” and “the hybrid vigour of the F1 plants”. Surely, on whatever theory we interpret hybrid vigour, both phenomena are manifestations of it.

Self- and Cross-Pollination in Argane Tree and their Implications on Breeding Programs
The argane tree (Argania spinosa L.) is a mostly self-incompatible species that must be cross-pollination. However, the cross-pollination is often insufficient to obtain a desirable fruit yield in the absence of compatibility between the orchard’s argane

Wind-Dragged Corolla Enhances Self-Pollination: A New Mechanism of Delayed Self-Pollination [PDF]
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.

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.

Breeding self-pollinated plants [PDF]
This presentation aims to discuss strategies to increase the efficiency of selection in self-pollinated plants. One of the strategies is the use of mixed models in order to appropriate genealogy information on the method of pedigree and through the sequential analysis in evaluation tests of progeny in several environments/generation.

Natural and artificial pollination of white-fleshed pitaya
To produce pitaya (Hylocereus spp.), it is essential that pollination occur, either artificially or by pollinating agents. This study evaluated the viability of self-pollination, cross-pollination, and natural pollination, as well as pollen viability ...

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

Self-fertility studies of some sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.) cultivars and selections
Fruit set of two sweet cherry cultivars (Alex' and 'Stella' ) and four Hungarian selections have been studied over two years following open pollination, unassisted self-pollination (autogamy) and artificial self-pollination (geitonogamy).
