There is a positive relationship between pollination and fruit yield of almonds. Since self-incompatibility major problem in almond cultivars, foreign pollinators are generally used almonds to get high quality. This study was conducted investigate the effects different (inbreed hybrid combinations) on set pomological characteristics Texas cultivar 2018 - 2019 growing seasons. Fruit ratios varie...

Trials were established at Aula Dei Experimental Station (EEAD-CSIC, Zaragoza, Spain) to assess graft compatibility between peach cultivars [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch] and new Prunus spp. rootstocks or selections. Peach cvs. Catherina and Tebana and nectarine cvs. Big Top and Summergrand were grafted on peach seedlings, plum rootstocks, almond x peach hybrids, and other interspecific rootstock...

Identifying traits that affect rates of speciation and extinction and, hence, explain differences in species diversity among clades is a major goal of evolutionary biology. Detecting such traits is especially difficult when they undergo frequent transitions between states. Self-incompatibility, the ability of hermaphrodites to enforce outcrossing, is frequently lost in flowering plants, enablin...

There is a significant potential to improve the plant-beneficial effects of root-colonizing pseudomonads by breeding wheat genotypes with a greater capacity to sustain interactions with these bacteria. However, the interaction between pseudomonads and crop plants at the cultivar level, as well as the conditions which favor the accumulation of beneficial microorganisms in the wheat rhizosphere, ...

although self incompatibility in walnut has not been reported, but the dicogamy limits self pollination of walnut cultivars. as the density of female flowers produced by the tree is low, if a high fruit set occurs, yield especially in terminal bearing cultivars will not be high. so breeding of a pollinizer cultivar with proper pollen shading period is highly necessary for increasing fruit produ...
