breeding of almond to attain self compatible cultivars is among the objectives followed in almond breeding. early identification of self-compatible genotypes from self-incompatible ones is very important in saving of time and expenses. there are different methods of either classical or molecular nature to recognize self-compatibility in genotypes. in this study, pcr-based method with specific p...

Self-incompatibility is one of the most important difficulties in almond production which reduce fruit set dramatically and makes orchard management difficult. Therefore, breeding almond to produce self-compatible genotypes is very important. In this research identification and screening of 86 almond progenies obtained from selfing Touno after the self-pollination by PCR reaction with specific ...

self-incompatibility is one of the most important difficulties in almond production which reduce fruit set dramatically.therefore, breeding almond to produce self-compatible genotypes is very important. in this research, pollen tube growth was studied in 28 genotypes obtained from crossing between touno (male parent) and shahrood 12 (female parent) after self pollination by fluorescent microsco...

Although pollen tube growth has been an important criterion for self-compatibility evaluation in almond, there is not a clear-cut separation between positive and negative growth of pollen tubes in the different genotypes. The examination of pollen tube growth after selfing almond seedlings has allowed establishing different levels of compatibility, but not a clear-cut separation between self-co...

The almond, Prunus dulcis Miller which belongs to Rosaceae family, is one of the most important commercial and oldest cultivated tree nut crops. Almonds are classified as a ‘nut’ in which the edible seed is the commercial product. Therefore, pollination and fertilization are necessary in almond. The characteristic of cultivated almond to express gametophytic self- incompatibility discourages se...

Self-incompatibility in almond and Prunus species is an important trait that prevents self-fertilization. Selfincompatibility in almond is controlled gametophytically by the multiallelic S-locus. Present study was done in order to identification and preliminary selection of self compatible progenies resulted from controlled crosses in almond using specific primer SfF/SfR. Some important morphol...

18 The effect of the pollination time and of the pollen origin was studied in three self-compatible 19 and late-blooming almond genotypes in order to evaluate their effect on fruit set and yield. 20 The full self-compatibility of the three genotypes was clearly assessed as fruit sets after self21 pollination were similar to those obtained after cross-pollination with pollen from two 22 differen...

self-incompatibility is one of the main problems in almond production. in this research work, at the first step, some local cultivars as well as some imported ones were evaluated from the point of their male and female organ compatibility. then, ten selected commercial self-incompatible cultivars(female parents) were crossed with two self-compatible cultivars(male parents) i. e. tuono and super...
