Abstract

Cover illustration Self-compatibility (SC) in almond is an important agronomical trait in order to ensure the crop production. In this study, pistil DNA from genetically diverse almond samples was cloned and sequenced and then analyzed for changes affecting Sf variants. Epigenetic changes were detected in the SC cultivars but not in the SI ones. DNA methylation appears to be strongly associated with inactivation of the SC allele in almond
