Abstract excerpt
Gametophytic self-incompatibility (SI) possessed by the Solanaceae is controlled by a highly polymorphic locus called the S locus. The S locus contains two linked genes, S-RNase, which determines female specificity, and the as yet unidentified pollen S gene, which determines male specificity in SI interactions. To identify the pollen S gene of Petunia inflata, we had previously used mRNA differential display and...
