Abstract: | Most cultivars of Japanese pear (Pyrus pyrifolia Nakai) exhibit gametophytic self-incompatibility controlled by a single S-locus with multiple S-haplotypes. A self-compatible (SC) cultivar, ??Osanijisseiki?? (S 2 S 4 sm ), arising by a bud mutation of ??Nijisseiki?? (S 2 S 4 ), has a stylar-part mutant S 4 sm -haplotype, which lacks the pistil S 4 gene, which is the S 4 -RNase gene. To efficiently breed SC cultivars, we selected ??Nashi Chuukanbohon Nou 1 Gou?? (??NCN1??) harboring homozygous S 4 sm from a self-progeny of Osanijisseiki and crossed it with ??Okusankichi?? (S 5 S 7 ), ??Hakkou?? (S 4 S 5 ), or ??Ri-14?? (S 1 S 2 ). Fruit set (%) was compared after self-pollination of the trees in the three progenies. All trees derived from the three progenies were predicted to be SC, except for the S 4 S 4 sm trees in the progeny of NCN1 × Hakkou. However, S 1 S 4 sm trees in the progeny of NCN1 × Ri-14 proved to be self-incompatible (SI). The pollen from Osanijisseiki was incompatible with ??Doitsu?? (S 1 S 2 ), but that from Nijisseiki was compatible, suggesting a possibility that the S 4 sm pollen was rejected by S 1 -harboring pistils. This possibility was clarified by crossing the pollen from NCN1 (S 4 sm S 4 sm ) to Doitsu, ??Imamuraaki?? (S 1 S 6 ), or ??Hougetsu?? (S 1 S 7 ), all of which proved incompatible. On the other hand, S 4 sm pollen was accepted by pistils harboring the S 2 , S 3 , S 5 , S 6 , S 7 , S 9 , and S k haplotypes. The dual recognition of S 1 and S 4 pistils by S 4 sm pollen can be attributed to a mutation of the pollen S 4 gene(s). |
