Abstract excerpt
In this study, we characterized a naturally occurring self-compatible apple cultivar, 'CAU-1' (S1S9), and studied the underlying mechanism that causes its compatibility. Analyses of both fruit set rate and seed number after self-pollination or cross-pollination with 'Fuji' (S1S9), and of pollen tube growth, demonstrated that 'CAU-1' is self-compatible. Genetic analysis by S-RNase PCR-typing of selfed progeny of...
