  1. Germination of pollen tubes on stigmas were scored in 100 crosses (three flowers pollinated in each cross) performed between four GA, four GB, and two [SC] genotypes (G16-10 and MJ-05). As pollen donors, [SC] individuals were compatible with both GA and GB genotypes, but as pollen recipients, they were incompatible with GA genotypes and compatible with GB genotypes.
  2. SI Self-incompatibility reaction observed (pollen tube growth stopped within stigma), SC self-compatibility reaction observed (pollen tubes converged in the stigmatic tissue and grew toward the style), 0 incompatibility reaction, 1 compatibility reaction, na missing data.
