The genetics of self-incompatibility in Brassica campestris L. ssp. Oleifera Metzg. I. Characteristics of S-locus. Control of self-incompatibility
R. A. Richards,N. Thurling +1 more
TL;DR: Self-compatibility in Brassica campestris c.v. Arlo was ascribed to the segregation of a polygenic complex which is capable of modifying the incompatibility reaction to the point of self-fertility, or to a reduction in the strength of the reaction due to the presence of S alleles low in the dominance series.
Journal ArticleDOI
The genetics of self-incompatibility in Brassica campestris L. ssp. Oleifera Metzg. II. Genotypic and environmental modification of S locus control
R. A. Richards,N. Thurling +1 more
TL;DR: Evidence of the operation of some polygenic modifying complex was provided by an analysis of a diallel cross among seven of the inbred lines, which detected significant additive genetic variation among the parental lines, considerable non-allelic interaction and some dominance of an ambi-directional type.
