The research work concerned aspects of floral biology and the necessity of cross-pollination for fruit set of seven olive cultivars, grown in Central Italy. As a first step, the self-fertility behaviour of those cultivars was studied from 1999 to 2001. The pollination tests checked the self-incompat...
