Abstract
THE genetic systems of self-incompatibility among the homomorphic flowering plants have been broadly subdivided into two groups1: (1) ‘gametophytic systems’ in which the pollen reaction is determined by the S allele contained in the pollen (Leguminosae, Scrophulariaceae, Solanaceae, Gramineae) and (2) ‘sporophytic systems’ in which the pollen reaction is determined sporophytically by the maternal S genotype.
