Summary
Gametophytic Self-incompatibility
is a
Genetic mechanism in plants
that prevents self-fertilization and
Promotes outcrossing
by allowing the
Female reproductive tissues
to recognize and
Reject pollen grains
that share
Similar genetic markers
. This system enhances
Genetic Diversity
and adaptability by ensuring that the pollen that
Fertilizes the ovules
is
Genetically distinct
from the
Maternal tissue
.
