Abstract
The pollen–stigma interaction resulting in self-incompatibility in the cruciferous plant Brassica has been correlated with glycoproteins that display polymorphisms in all S genotypes examined. A complementary DNA clone encoding these glycoproteins has been isolated and characterized. Polymorphisms in homologous restriction fragments of Brassica genomic DNA segregate precisely with alleles at the S locus.
