“…incompatibility groups of sweet cherry As in almond, sweet cherry fertilization is controlled by a system of GSI under the genetic control of a multiallelic locus called the S-locus (Crane and Brown, 1937). From a cross-pollination study, Matthews and Dow (1969) assigned cultivars to 13 incompatibility groups and a Group O, which includes cultivars that are SI but able to pollinate cultivars in all other groups (universal pollen donor).…”

Most rosaceous fruit tree species exhibit gametophytic self-incompatibility (GSI). During the last decade, much progress has been made in identifying and characterizing the S-locus genes that control the specificity of the selfincompatible (SI) reaction in the Rosaceae. The pistil and pollen determinants of S-specificity in the Rosaceae are a ribonuclease and an F-box protein, respectively. From allele-specific sequence polymorphism of S-specificity genes, molecular S-genotyping systems have been established in various rosaceous fruit tree species. Molecular characterization of S-determinants in self-compatible (SC) cultivars has revealed defects in the S-determinants that cause SC and enabled the development of molecular markers for SC. Marker-assisted selection of SC offspring is now being successfully incorporated into breeding programs. In this paper, we summarize the current knowledge of the molecular basis of self-(in)compatibility, S-genotyping methods, and molecular markers for SC in rosaceous fruit tree species.

“…All varieties of the sweet cherry, Prunus avium, are self-incompatible, and their incompatibility is due to a series of multiple allelomorphs like those of Oenothera organensis (Crane & Lawrence 1931;Crane & Brown 1937)-Also as in Oenothera, incompatibility in the cherry is a very rigorous mechanism; approximately one fruit sets for every thousand flowers pollinated. Furthermore, incompatibility is due to the inhibition of pollen tubes half-way down the style (Roy 1939)-* Emerson ( 1938) states that, in his experim ents, the flowers were kept in a m oht chamber at 25° C, but elsewhere in the same paper he states that the temperature ranged fiom -0 27° C.…”

[P la te 1]Two different genetic systems of incompatibility between pollen and style are known. One, heterogamety, depends upon the genotype of the individual pollen grain; the other, heterostyly, upon the genotype of its parent. We do not know whether the two types are physio logically related. The specificity of heterogamety indicates an immunity reaction. The effect of temperature on pollen-tube growth in the two systems was measured in order to discover their relationship.Compatible pollinations of both systems showed increased rate of grow th with increased temperature until the lethal point was approached at about 35° C.Incompatible pollinations of both systems showed an optimum growth rate between 15 and 20° C. The physiological method of inhibition is therefore probably related although its genetic basis is different.The different rate of growth at different temperatures gives different total growth at in hibition, and at the most favourable temperature there may be no inhibition at all. There is therefore no specific inhibitory zone in these plants, although elsewhere the top of the style may provide such a zone.Certain genotypes of Oenothera organensis show such powerful incompatibility that no temperature sensitivity can be discovered. This extreme modification is determined by the pollen parent's genotype, like the main action in heterostyly.In heterostyled plants thrum pollen has to grow dowm the longer pin style; it is adapted to this in two ways. In Primula it is larger, in Linum grandiflorum it has a higher osmotic pressure. In either case, presumably, it has the higher dry weight.In two heterostyled Primula species thrum pollen grows faster dowm the long-pin style than pin pollen does dowm the short-thrum style. But in the illegitimate matings thrum pollen is more strongly inhibited. There is therefore a differentiation of the mechanism adapted to secure equal regularity of cross-fertilization of the two types.
