The mechanisms by which flowering plants choose their mating partners have interested
researchers for a long time. Recent findings on the molecular mechanisms of non-self …

Self-incompatibility (SI) mechanisms prevent self-fertilization in flowering plants based on
specific discrimination between self-and non-self pollen. Since this trait promotes …

The plant group Solanum section Lycopersicon (the clade containing the domesticated
tomato and its wild relatives) is ideal for integrating genomic tools and approaches into …

This study aimed to determine the effects of exogenous application of salicylic acid (SA) on
the toxic effects of salt in relation to ethylene and polyamine synthesis, and to correlate these …

Self-incompatibility is expressed by nearly one-half of all angiosperms. A large proportion of
the remaining species are self-compatible, and they either outcross using various …

Over the past 20 years, several expeditions were made to northern Chile to collect
populations of wild tomatoes (Solanum chilense, S. peruvianum) and allied nightshades (S …

Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) domestication and later introduction into Europe resulted
in a genetic bottleneck that reduced genetic variation. Crosses with other wild tomato …

Wild tomato species, like Solanum chilense, are important germplasm resources for
enhanced biotic and abiotic stress resistance in tomato breeding. S. chilense also serves as …

Unilateral interspecific incompatibility (UI) is a postpollination, prezygotic reproductive
barrier that prevents hybridization between related species when the female parent is self …

Research into molecular mechanisms of self-incompatibility (SI) in plants can be observed in
representatives of various families, including Solanaceae. Earlier studies of the mechanisms …
