Studies the complex mechanisms that prevent self-fertilization during sexual reproduction in flowering plants. Describes the structural and chemical interactions that establish pollen compatibility or incompatiblity and uses fluorescent light and electron microscopy to demonsrate the mechanisms whereby pollen are recognized by the stigmatic cell surface. From the Biology: Form and Function series
