Abstract excerpt
In Phalaris coerulescens, gametophytic self-incompatibility is controlled by two unlinked genes: S and Z. A probable S gene has now been isolated and sequenced. This represents a novel self-incompatibility gene isolated from pollen in the multilocus system of a monocotyledonous plant. The gene is approximately 3 kb long, split by five introns, and exclusively expressed in the mature pollen. The deduced amino acid...
