Abstract excerpt
Self-incompatibility in Brassica entails the rejection of pollen grains that express specificities held in common with the seed parent. In Brassica, pollen specificity is encoded at the multipartite S-locus, a complex region comprising many expressed genes. A number of species within the Brassicaceae express sporophytic self-incompatibility, under which individual pollen grains bear specificities determined by...
