Abstract excerpt
The gametophytic self-incompatibility locus has been thought to be a nonrecombining genomic region. Inferences have been made, however, about the functional importance of different parts of the S-locus, based on differences in the levels of variability along the gene, and this is valid only if recombination occurs. It is thus important to test whether recombination occurs within and near the S-locus. Several...
