Self-(In)compatibility Systems: Target Traits for Crop-Production, Plant Breeding, and Biotechnology

Self-incompatibility (SI) mechanisms prevent self-fertilization in flowering plants based on specific discrimination between self- and non-self pollen. Since this trait promotes outcrossing and avoids inbreeding it is a widespread mechanism of controlling sexual plant reproduction. Growers and br...
