SELF-AND CROSS-FERTILIZATION IN PLANTS. 1. FUNCTIONALDIMENSIONS

DAVID G. LLOYD AND DANIEL J. SCHOEN Plant and MicrobialSciences, University of Canterbury,Private Bag, Christchurch,New Zealand; and Biology Department,McGill University, Montreal,Quebec H3A IBI, Canada

Many functional-ecological, morphological,and physiological-factors affect the occurrenceof self- fertilization.Six modes of self-pollinationare distinguished. These differin whetherthey utilize specialized ,whether they involve the transferof within or between flowers,whether they are auton- omous or mediated by vectors, and their timing relative to opportunitiesfor outcrossing.The various modes of selfing are subject to differentstructural constraints. Prepotency, the preferentialsuccess of cross-pollenin achievingfertilizations when it competes with self-pollen,influences the frequencyof self- fertilizationin some species. The amount of self-fertilizationmay depend on environmentalconditions and the vector species visiting each and may vary among the flowers of one plant. To gain informationon the prevalenceof autonomous self-,66 species for which the degreesof self- compatibilityand autofertility( set in isolation) have been published were surveyed. Partiallyself- incompatiblespecies (in which the seed set is lower after self-pollinationthan after separateoutcrosses) have on average lower autofertilitythan self-compatiblespecies (in which self- and cross- succeed equally well), but some partially self-incompatiblespecies have considerableautofertility and some self-compatiblespecies have none. A number of featuresof floral morphologyand phenologyare associatedwith high AutofertilityIndices.
