Self-incompatibility
There are several different types of self-incompatibility in different flowering plant species, and there has recently been progress in understanding their molecular genetics by using combined molecular and evolutionary approaches. Questions include the mechanism of self-incompatibility (both the nature of the proteins encoded by the genes and whether incompatibility systems all have separate g...
متن کاملEvolution of self-incompatibility:
Whitehouse (1950): 1. Sudden rise of angiosperms during the Cretaceous period (144-65 million years ago) was due to the development of barriers for self-pollination forcing the flowering plants to out breed and resulted genetic variations and rapid expansion of the angiosperms. 2. 70% of the angiosperms are hermophrodite species, while no more than 5% dioecious. Such a high proportion of hermop...
متن کاملActin senses self-incompatibility
A ctin depolymerization is a death trigger for poppy pollen, according to Thomas et al. (page 221), that prevents self-fertilization. Some plants prefer not to be fertilized by pollen grains that are genetically similar to themselves. These plants express self-incompatibility (S) proteins. A match between the pistil’s S-proteins and the pollen’s S-allele triggers a rapid calcium infl ux, actin ...
متن کاملSelf-incompatibility in Papaver
Self-fertilization, which results in reduced fitness of offspring, is a common problem in hermaphrodite angiosperms. To prevent this, many plants utilize self-incompatibility (SI), which is determined by the multi-allelic S locus, that allows discrimination between self (incompatible) and non-self (compatible) pollen by the pistil. In poppy (Papaver rhoeas), the pistil S-determinant (PrsS) is a...
متن کاملRecognizing self in the self-incompatibility response.
François Jacob once facetiously lamented the arrangement in the human body whereby reproduction is the only function for which an individual is equipped with only one-half of the necessary organs, thus entailing the expenditure of a substantial amount of time and energy into finding the other half (10). The spatial separation of the sexual partners (or organs) is indeed an obligatory feature of...
