Hierarchical patterns of correlated mating in Acacia melanoxylon.

Genetics - 1 Mar 1991

Muona O, Moran G F, Bell J C

Abstract excerpt

Pollen of acacias is transported by insects as polyads, composite pollen grains. The polyad has enough pollen grains to fertilize all ovules within a flower and hence all seed within a pod may be full sibs. Isozyme markers were used to test this hypothesis in two populations of Acacia melanoxylon R.Br. The proportions of fruit pods with multiple paternity detected in two populations were 0.08 and 0.15. The...
