Among- and within-population variation in outcrossing rate of a mixed-mating freshwater snail.

Heredity - 1 Oct 2006

Jokela J, Wiehn J, Kopp K

Abstract excerpt

Mixed-mating animals self-fertilize a proportion of their offspring. Outcrossing rate may covary with the ecological and historical factors affecting the population. Theory predicts that outcrossing is favored when inbreeding depression is high and when individual heterozygosity is important. Self-fertilization is predicted to be favored when costs of male function, or mate finding are high, for example, when...
