Abstrakt: The article discusses research on the out-crossing rates of camelina and its connection to bio-industrial oils. It notes the concept of camelina as a self-pollinating specie due to its low level of out-crossing rate. The researchers examined out-crossing and its triggering factors including flowering synchrony, planting date, and sources of pollen. The study also investigated short-distance outcrossing to identify pollen-mediated gene flow.
