Genetic variation for outcrossing among Caenorhabditis elegans isolates.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Jun 2006

Teotónio Henrique, Manoel Diogo, Phillips Patrick C

Abstract excerpt

The evolution of breeding systems results from the existence of genetic variation and selective forces favoring different outcrossing rates. In this study we determine the extent of genetic variation for characters directly related to outcrossing, such as male frequency, male mating ability, and male reproductive success, in several wild isolates of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. This species is...
