Abstract
Self-incompatibility in flowering plants is controlled by the S gene. A complementary DNA clone encoding a style protein of Nicotiana alata which segregates with the S2 allele has now been sequenced. The S-allele-associated style components in different genotypes of N. alata and in Lycopersicon peruvianum, another self-incompatible species in the family Solanaceae, are homologous.
