| Abstract: | A progeny obtained from the almond cross ‘Ferragnès’בTuono’ (Prunus amygdalus Batsch) was used to study the self-incompatibility trait in three different ways: fruit set, pollen tube growth and stylar ribonuclease activity. As expected from the genotypes of the parents, all progeny appeared phenotypically as self-compatible. However, the progeny could be scored for the segregation of stylar ribonuclease isozymes and thus allowed the incompatibility locus to be placed on the almond linkage map. |
