Preferred Label : Self-Incompatibility in flowering plants;
MeSH definition : One of many different processes which occur in ANGIOSPERMS by which genetic diversity
is maintained while INBREEDING is prevented.; A naturally occurring reproductive phenomenon of FLOWERING PLANTS where self-incompatibility
arises due to differences between NUCLEUS, CYTOPLASM, MITOCHONDRIA, or CHLOROPLASTS
that occur in gamete cells from separate sources when they are brought together by
cross-hybridization or in vitro manipulation.;
