A novel hybrid seed production technology based on a unilateral cross-incompatibility gene in maize
Hybrid seed production technology (SPT) using genic recessive male sterility is of great importance in maize breeding. Here, we report a novel SPT...

Molecular characteristics of S-RNase alleles as the determinant of self-incompatibility in the style of Fragaria viridis
Strawberry ( Fragaria spp.) is a member of the Rosoideae subfamily in the family Rosaceae. The self-incompatibility (SI) of some diploid species is a...
