The evolution of self-fertilization in density-regulated populations.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 7 Jun 2002

Cheptou Pierre-Olivier, Dieckmann Ulf

Abstract excerpt

The evolution of selfing in hermaphrodites has been studied to reveal the demographic conditions that lead to intermediate selfing rates. Using a demographic model based on Ricker-type density regulation, we assume first that, independent of population density, inbred individuals survive less well than outbred individuals and second, that inbred and outbred individuals differ in their competitive abilities in...
