Most Prunus fruit tree species exhibit a homomorphic gametophytic self-incompatibility (GSI)
system, in which specificity of self/nonself-recognition is controlled by products encoded …

The reproductive behavior of Japanese plum has not been studied as in other Prunus
species. Thus, a number of cultivars are particularly prone to erratic fruit set showing low …

This unique volume combines discussion of plant evolution with that of crop origins. The first
edition was published in 1992 by Prentice-Hall, and has now been fully revised to reflect …

This study describes a novel F-box protein gene in the S-locus of sour cherry (Prunus
cerasus) and sweet cherry (P. avium). The gene showed an S-haplotype-specific sequence …

The transition from self-incompatibility (SI) to self-compatibility (SC) is regarded as one of the
most prevalent transitions in Angiosperm evolution, having profound impacts on the genetic …

Although various consensus polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers have been reported
for identifying Prunus S‐alleles, they have been developed from and optimized on a limited …

The gametophytic self-incompatibility (GSI) system in Rosaceae has been proposed to be
controlled by two genes located in the S-locusan S-RNase and a recently described pollen …

Most blueberry breeding activity is focused on northern highbush, southern highbush and
rabbiteye types. The major objectives of blueberry breeders center on high plant vigor …

During the last decade, S-genoty** has been extensively investigated in fruit tree crops
such as those belonging to the Prunus genus, including plums. In plums, S-allele ty** has …

An integrated genetic linkage map, based on an intraspecific peach F 2 population, was
constructed to include 94 simple sequence repeat (SSR) loci, 14 sequence tagged sites …
