STUDY ON COMPATIBILITY/INCOMPATIBILITY IN APRICOT USING FIELD POLLINATION AND PCR AMPLIFICATION
Gametophytic incompatibility causes low productivity by preventing self- or cross-fertilization in apricot.
In this research incompatibility was studied by field controlled pollination (complete di-allele pollination) and S-allele specific PCR genotyping of Shahroodi, Nasiri, Jahangiri and Noori apricots.
Results revealed that all cultivars were self-incompatible but no cross-incompatibility was observed.
Pollen type was significantly affected on fruit set percentage. Noori had the highest fruit set as pollenizer on other cultivars. S-alleles genotypes indicated that Shahroodi and Jahangiri had a similar S-allele but it was different in Noori and Nasiri. The results suggested that Noori is the suitable pollenizer for three others.
