Abstract excerpt
In the Brassicaceae, self-vs. nonself-recognition in self-incompatibility is controlled by sporophytic S-alleles. Haplotypes specifying both SRK (S-receptor kinase) and SLG (S-locus glycoprotein) are considered to play an important role in the recognition reactions. We compared the nucleotide sequences of SRK9(Bc) and SRK6(Bo). The number of nonsynonymous substitutions per site (Pn) was lower, constrained, in the...
