  1. aIn this family, two individuals were self-incompatible; the rest showed varying degrees of self-compatibility, with number of fruits produced/total self-pollinations conducted = 2/6, 1/4, 4/4 and 2/2.
  2. bIn this family, one individual was self-incompatible, the others showed 2/3 and 5/6 fruits on selfing; individuals in this family did not flower sufficiently for outcross pollinations to be performed.
