Early ovule development following self- and cross-pollinations in Eucalyptus globulus Labill. ssp. globulus.

TL;DR: The mechanism of self-incompatibility appears to have both late pre- and post-zygotic components, and the number of healthy fertilized ovules was lower in both treatments compared with 4 weeks after pollination, and many ovules were degenerating.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effects on the quality of Cavendish bananas, which have been treated with ethylene, of exposure to 1‐methylcyclopropene

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) to induce ripening of mature green bananas (Musa sp., AAA type, Cavendish subgroup, cv. Williams).
Journal ArticleDOI

The self-incompatibility mating system of the olive ( Olea europaea L.) functions with dominance between S-alleles

TL;DR: A method to analyze data from controlled crosses between olive cultivars applied to two experiments for varieties crossed in a diallel design, with given dominance relationships for six S-alleles matches 98 % of the experimental data of the two sets investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pollen tube growth and early ovule development following self- and cross-pollination in Eucalyptus nitens

TL;DR: The reduced ability of E. nitens to set self- pollinated seed compared with cross-pollinated seed appears to be controlled by a post-zygotic mechanism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pollen Tube Growth and Seed Set of Banksia coccinea R.Br. (Proteaceae)

TL;DR: Controlled hand pollinations and field observations were used in conjunction with fluorescence and scanning electron microscopy and fruit and seed set to investigate the timing of stigma receptivity, pollen tube growth and self-incompatibility in relation to fertility in B. coccinea.
