Out of 23 Malaysian trees studied, U trees were self-incompatible and 11 self-compatible.Outof the 34from the Nigerian collection 22wereself.incompatible and 12 self-compatible. Both Malaysian and Nigerian collections had similar pattern of distribution for self-compatible and self-incompatible trees.
