Levels of DNA polymorphism vary with mating system in the nematode genus caenorhabditis.

Genetics - 1 May 2002

Graustein Andrew, Gaspar John M, Walters James R, Palopoli Michael F

Abstract excerpt

Self-fertilizing species often harbor less genetic variation than cross-fertilizing species, and at least four different models have been proposed to explain this trend. To investigate further the relationship between mating system and genetic variation, levels of DNA sequence polymorphism were compared among three closely related species in the genus Caenorhabditis: two self-fertilizing species, Caenorhabditis...
