Convergent evolution at the gametophytic self-incompatibility system in Malus and Prunus.

Convergent evolution at the gametophytic self-incompatibility system in Malus and Prunus.

S-RNase-based gametophytic self-incompatibility (GSI) has evolved once before the split of the Asteridae and Rosidae. This conclusion is based on the phylogenetic history of the S-RNase that determines pistil specificity. In Rosaceae, molecular characterizations of Prunus species, and species from t...
