Origin and diversification dynamics of self-incompatibility haplotypes.
Self-incompatibility (SI) is a genetic system found in some hermaphrodite plants. Recognition of pollen by pistils expressing cognate specificities at two linked genes leads to rejection of self pollen and pollen from close relatives, i.e., to avoidance of self-fertilization and inbred matings, and thus increased outcrossing. These genes generally have many alleles, yet the conditions allowing ...
متن کاملOn the origin of self-incompatibility haplotypes: transition through self-compatible intermediates.
Self-incompatibility (SI) in flowering plants entails the inhibition of fertilization by pollen that express specificities in common with the pistil. In species of the Solanaceae, Rosaceae, and Scrophulariaceae, the inhibiting factor is an extracellular ribonuclease (S-RNase) secreted by stylar tissue. A distinct but as yet unknown gene (provisionally called pollen-S) appears to determine the s...
متن کاملThe self-incompatibility (S) haplotypes of Brassica contain highly divergent and rearranged sequences of ancient origin.
In Brassica, the recognition of self-related pollen by the stigma is controlled by the highly polymorphic S locus that encodes several linked and coadapted genes and can span several hundred kilobases. We used pulsed-field gel electrophoresis to analyze the structure of different S haplotypes. We show that the S2 and S13 haplotypes of Brassica oleracea contain extensive sequence divergence and ...
متن کاملPhenotypic and genotypic expression of self-incompatibility haplotypes in Arabidopsis lyrata suggests unique origin of alleles in different dominance classes.
The highly divergent alleles of the SRK gene in outcrossing Arabidopsis lyrata have provided important insights into the evolutionary history of self-incompatibility (SI) alleles and serve as an ideal model for studies of the evolutionary and molecular interactions between alleles in cell-cell recognition systems in general. One tantalizing question is how new specificities arise in systems tha...
متن کاملContrasted Patterns of Molecular Evolution in Dominant and Recessive Self-Incompatibility Haplotypes in Arabidopsis
Self-incompatibility has been considered by geneticists a model system for reproductive biology and balancing selection, but our understanding of the genetic basis and evolution of this molecular lock-and-key system has remained limited by the extreme level of sequence divergence among haplotypes, resulting in a lack of appropriate genomic sequences. In this study, we report and analyze the ful...
