Current threats to the planet's biodiversity are unprecedented, and they particularly imperil
insular floras. In this investigation, we use the threat factors identified by the Millennium …

Self‐incompatibility systems in plants are genetic systems that prevent self‐fertilization in
hermaphrodites through recognition and rejection of pollen expressing the same allelic …

Generic relationships in the Pyrinae (equivalent to subfamily Maloideae) were assessed
with six chloroplast regions and five nuclear regions. We also plotted 12 non-molecular …

The molecular bases of the gametophytic self-incompatibility (GSI) system of species of the
subtribe Pyrinae (Rosaceae), such as apple and pear, have been widely studied in the last …

Precise empirical data on current gene flow by pollen, both with respect to distance and
abundance, is crucial to understand whether habitat fragments are functionally connected …

Prunus fruit tree species exhibit S-ribonuclease (S-RNase)-based gametophytic self-
incompatibility (GSI). This system is also present in the families Plantaginaceae and …

This account presents information on all aspects of the biology of Crataegus monogyna
Jacq.(Hawthorn) that are relevant to understanding its ecological characteristics and …

Sustainable forest restoration and management practices require a thorough understanding
of the influence that habitat fragmentation has on the processes shaping genetic variation …

ABSTRACT Loquat (Eriobotrya japonica Lindl., Rosaceae, Maloideae) is a subtropical,
evergreen fruit tree (2n= 34) indigenous to China, that blooms in the fall and early winter …

A group of 28 sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.) local cultivars from the Jerte Valley in Western
Spain were fingerprinted using microsatellites and their self-incompatibility alleles …
