Parental effects in a partially self-incompatible herb Campanula rapunculoides L. (Campanulaceae): influence of variation in the strength of self-incompatibility on seed set and progeny performance.

Abstract excerpt

We employ a full reciprocal diallel design between 10 parental plants that differed in their strength of self-incompatibility (SI; strong, intermediate, and weak) to examine parental effects on seed set and 10 components of fitness of progeny performance in Campanula rapunculoides. We perform ANOVAs to separate the influence of the strength of SI and the identity of the maternal and paternal parent on family...
